Optimize FireFox for small screens

Recently I spent some time to optimize my FireFox so that I can have maximum working space.  The target was to change the FF interface so that it gets closest to Chrome. I used following Firefox addons to accomplish the task.

Fission ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1951)

This addon optimizes your address bar so that all the info you get from your status bar will be accessible through the status bar like hover link, connection status. (no need to have the status bar visible on the bottom. Just disable it from the view menu.)

Hide Caption (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/9256)

Removes the mostly useless caption or title bar. This addon also does some other useful tweaks.

Hide Menubar (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4762)

Hides the menu bar which can be shown temporarily by pressing the ALT key.

What Google lost after Chrome?

Well Google definitely gained a lot from Chrome but what it lost because of it…

The answer is Our trust. Most of us considered Google as a faithful contributor in the web world but this step by Google to launch its browser named Chrome is a real shaker. It can be considered as a step taken to establish the monopoly on the web. Firefox loaded with addons already fullfills our 70% needs. Launching a browser that targets the remaining 30% needs and fullfills only some of them is not a clever step.

There are few things that this new browse offers. Every tab having its own process which can be controlled through task manager. Another of the feature is its sleekness which I appreciate in all Google products. But if not all most of these things can be achieved with Firefox.

Well what is done can not be undone so lets hope that Chrome brings a positive competition in browser market and we will see a lot of new features in browser shortly.

[PS] After a lot of criticism in the comments, I thought I should clarify some of my points. First of all nothing can be perfect so we should just pay heed to all sides of the scenario. Secondly it takes time for any software to become excellent. Chrome has to have some drawbacks at this point of time. So let the time decide.
