I have GTDInbox, but I can't figure out how to make it work.  I also have User Agent Switcher, which is effective about half the time.  AdBlock is great.  I have Sage installed but I don't much use it anymore.  it's a nice RSS reader.  Check4Change has it's uses.

It tweaks most of the settings that I used to tweak in Firefox manually to improve perceived speed.  

It certainly is worth the, what, 10 seconds it takes to install it.  ;)
