The Plurk, SocialThing and Facebook Firefox sidebar extensions got a minor update today. I just bumped the max version to work the the latest security release of Firefox 3.
Are there any other site’s you’d like to see load in Firefox’s sidebar?
After my recent success with Plurkit, I decided to take the idea to the next level and add in more social sites. The outcome is SocialAddict which has 11 social sites within one Adobe Air application.
What SocialAddict does is loads the mobile or iPhone version of each site for easy access. Again, I didn’t tie into any APIs or do massive re-construction. These are all previously available applications that have been tied together to make it quick and easy to go from one to the next.
Within SocialAddict you’ll find:
Introducing the iPhone Socialthing! sidebar for Firefox. It’s simply an extension that loads the iPhone version of Socialthing! in Firefox’s sidebar. All features are controlled by Socialthing!, I’m just bringing it into Firefox.

How it works.
1. Download the extension to your desktop. Then go to Tools -> Add-ons and drag ist.xpi to your add-ons window. It’ll install and you’ll have to restart Firefox.
2. Log into Socialthing.com via your main Firefox window. Doing this before hand will make things a lot easier. If you log in through the sidebar, it won’t redirect properly. (Socialthing! developers, please fix this.)
