Top Greasemonkey Scripts for Business

The Top Greasemonkey Scripts for Business


First and foremost: What is a Greasemonkey? Greasemonkey is a custom script add-on to the popular web browser Firefox. It allows independent developers and programmers to customize the user experience and interface of a wide variety of websites. After installing Greasemonkey, simply visit the links listed below to view the script that you would like to install.



However, before getting started, I strongly suggest moving over to Chrome. If you're a social media person like myself, then use Rockmelt. It's built with Chrome, but it does a much better job of side-panels (edges) for allowing you to display your favorite task icons.



Then install TamperMonkey (Chrome equivalent of Greasemonkey for FF)
https://chrome.google.com/extens...



*These scripts work with either browser type. Rockmelt and/or Chrome are just my preferred browsers.

**Use these scripts at your own risk. Read all reviews before installation.

***Many of the scripts below are being recreated as Chrome Extensions. Check to see if there is an equivalent first.



1. http://userscripts.org/scripts/s... - Facebook Invites: Invite people on Facebook to be a friend. Be VERY careful using this though, as Facebooks TOS will shut you down if you get carried away with inviting everyone you see. If you need to know how to use it, post a question in Quora to me, and I'll do my best to give you a walk-through. Suggestion, do not use bulk add, instead use the option to middle-button click people and add via their profile. No more than 20-30 adds per day MAX.



2. http://userscripts.org/scripts/s... - Greased Lightbox: Everyone loves the lightbox image gallery feature (click thumb, screen darkens, image appears). This script adds it to nearly every instance on the web where there is an image gallery, Google Image Search, Flickr, Wikipedia, MySpace, deviantART and more.



3. http://userscripts.org/scripts/s... - Google Multi-Account Login: If you use more than one Gmail account, this script allows you to quickly switch back and forth between them.



4. http://userscripts.org/scripts/s... - Remove Facebook Ads: Does what it says... removes Facebook Ads using inline CSS (hides divs that contain ads)



5. http://userscripts.org/scripts/s... - Facebook Fixer - Enhancements for Facebook: bigger profile pictures and photos, easier viewing of albums, links to download videos, showing people's age and sign, google calendar integration, bookmarks, keyboard shortcuts & more. Fully customizable!
