Things which Mozilla Firefox should have had but does not

Mozilla FireFox is a very good browser.This article deals with what when incorporated in Mozilla would make it a very powerful browser.

Say you have turned off images and say you are filling an application form , now in order to submit it you are requested to type a series of alphabets from an image , now here begins the problem you go to the required option and enable images and then what you will have to reload the entire page for doing this and when you reload the page you lose all the data that you have filled up. you could also try right clicking the place where the image is and selecting view image but now the image opens as a next window and when you go back you loose all your filled data.

firefox Pictures, Images and PhotosInstantaneous displaying and hiding images when required is not possible. Opera is one web browser which offers this functionality.You can view the image in the same page by right clicking the image and selecting reload image.

Sea monkey also is a very good browser . In opera when a particular page is navigated away the contents that you filled in the page remain intact as you typed it because opera loads pages from the cache to save time.


Another feature which should have been incorporated in Mozilla is the ability of to block various advertisements and pictures from servers.(Opera has this functionality though)

Another feature which should have been incorporated is the ability to download from torrents .Opera has an inbuilt bit-torrent installed in it.

Other applications such as Mail and newsgroup , IRC chat, and address book are some features which could make Mozilla an ideal browser.
Seamonkey and opera has mail and news group, chat and an address book inbuilt in it so you should some day try it.

These advancements to be incorporated in Mozilla can be rectified by adding addons for Mozilla FireFox . Still ,it is one of the most powerwul browsers out there.

How to measure exact power consumption ( in watts) of a device in your house

This works only if you have a digital energy meter. Switch off all appliances in your house, except the device whose energy consumption is to be measured. Now go to the energy meter and usually there is a single white button which toggles between a variety of display functions like Voltage, amps, watts etc. Press the button continuously until you see the Watts information. Some energy meters will only display energy consumed in kW. So if you see .04 kW, that means the device is taking 40 watts, Note that kWh is different from kW. Say if you have a fan that consumes 40W. If you run the fan for one hour, your energy in kWh will be 40/1000 (conversion to kW - divide by thousand) *1 hour = .04 kWh. If you run the fan for 10 hours then 40/1000 * 10 = .4 kWh Usually, 1 kWh = 1 unit of electrical energy. So if you have a device which runs in lower Wattage, you can run it for longer hours for the same amount of kWh consumed. Thus saving on bills.
