![]() ![]() But what if you do not have multiple monitors? You can still benefit from splitting your browser into separate windows with " Tab Scissors". This is great for teachers as they grade or students as they work. I can have your email on one screen, the Doc I am writing on another, and the webpage I am pulling information from on the third. I love using multiple monitors! Having two (or three) screens attached to your computer makes it so much easier to multitask. This extension splits a window into two at the selected tab. Whatever the case, all of these are valuable for teachers and students. Some you may have heard of, but others may be new to you. Some of these are relatively recent, while others have been around for a while. For this post I wanted to highlight ten cool extensions that are worth checking out. Having said all of that, there are some extensions that I have not really covered on the blog yet.

You can see all of the posts for each day as they get released in the main post here: " 12 Days of Tech-Mas 2017". Note: This post is part of my " 12 Days of Tech-Mas" series for 2017. But this is a note taking program, not a text editor, though you can use it as one.On the 10th day of Tech-Mas my true love gave to me… 10 Excellent Extensions. There doesn't seem to be a word limit per tab, so theoretically you could have endless notes. The restriction to only have 9 note tabs can be a downside for some. On the bright side, the extension does not require any special permissions to run. One of the comments by the developer on the add-on's reviews page mentioned that Nine Notes supports a hotkey on Ubuntu: Shift + Alt + N. The extension does not support sticky notes or reminders. Though, unlike it Nine Notes cannot be used from a pop-up window, i.e., it works as a sidebar tool. The extension seems to have been inspired by an old add-on called QuickNote. This is isn't necessary, since the content that you save in Nine Notes are persistent, i.e., they are retained even after you exit the browser or reboot the computer. Each note tab is saved in its own text file, so remember to save all your note tabs. You can paste the content in a text editor to find the content you were searching for.Īlternatively, you can use the "Save' button in the bottom left corner of the sidebar, to save it in a text document which makes it easy to search, and this also lets you backup your notes. Nine Notes does not have a search option, so if you jot down something in one of the notes and don't remember where you saved it, there is no direct way of finding it. Speaking of, links that you save in the notes (by pasting the URL) are not clickable, but you can highlight them and use Firefox's open in new tab option. Sadly, this method doesn't work with links, emails (basically any clickable text). This option saves the selected text in a new line at the end of the selected note. This sub-menu has its own child menu, that can be used to select the "note number" that you wish to send the content to. You will see an option that says "Send to 9 Notes". Highlight text on web pages and right-click on the selection to open the browser's context menu. ![]() The add-on has soft wrap (word wrap) enabled by default you can toggle it from the settings. There is no support for formatting text or adding images. The Nine Notes text pane is just a large text field. The settings page also houses options to toggle a Dark theme, set the font size and type. ![]() There is no way to rename or rearrange the tabs. Head to the add-on's options to enable up to nine note tabs. ![]() To close the sidebar hit the X button in the top right corner of the panel. You'll see 5 tabs in the sidebar, one for each note. Clicking it opens a sidebar, this is the extension's interface. When you install the add-on, it places an icon on the toolbar. Nine Notes is an extension for Firefox that can help you jot down notes quickly. ![]()
