Top 10 Greasemonkey Scripts For Google Products - Gmail, Search, Reader And More
For those of who don’t know what Greasemonkey is, it’s a Firefox extension that lets you change the look and feel of many popular pages. In much the same way that user CSS lets you take control of a web page’s style, user scripts let you easily control any aspect of a web page’s design or interaction.
There are many scripts available that are available that are really easy to install. I thought I’d make a list of my favourite Google e.g. Google Reader, Gmail, Search etc.
Of course, all of these scripts require Greasemonkey to be installed. If you haven’t done so yet, then here’s how:
- install Firefox (I had to say it just in case…..)
- install greasemonkey
Now for the scripts. To install just follow the links below and install each script in two clicks, just like firefox addons:
- Remove Google Ads: Removes Google/Adsense ads from all pages
- Google Reader Optimized: Uses the maximum amount of space for the feed viewing area, at the expense of all unnecessary UI elements
- Del.icio.us Meets Google: Replaces Yahoo Ads on Del.icio.us with Google Results
- Download Google Videos: Lets you download Google Videos
- Force Reader: Add feeds to Google Reader automatically without having to view a bridge page
- Gmail CSS Skin: Make Gmail look even sexier. So cool
- GmailTo: Opens Gmail compose window whenever you click on an email address in a webpage
- Try This Search On: Google may be the best search engine, but it’s not perfect. This script tries to detect when you are searching any website and then provides links to do a similar search on: Amazon.com, Ask.com, dmoz, Google, MSN, Yahoo!, Wikipedia and many other sites
- Gmail random signature: Make your emails cooler with a random signature
- Google Translate: Translate any page into the selected language
