FF is great for finding misspelled words like 'Fianlly'

All in One Sidebar can let you have your Bookmarks on the left hand side if that's any help, put your favorites in there. Usually I've 3 or 4 pages I have open all the time, set FF to remember pages when starting up and that suits me fine. Anything else usually shows up by typing in the location bar.

Best add ons, ones not mentioned, Close n forget, autopager (has a setting for boards), feedly, lastpass and tabmix plus.

FF is dead in the water time for chrome.

Yep, Control + F will allow you to search on FF, as well as Chrome and IE.

What you're looking for is Adblock Plus. It also can block malware/dangerous known sites, which is a plus.

Hell no. When I am ready to finally sell my soul to the Google spying machine, I will let you know :P

Forward slash "/" for fast search - lack of it drives me crazy when I'm forced to use IE.
