Padma – Firefox & Google Chrome Add-on for viewing Indian Language Websites

Hi all,

Even though Indic scripts are supported through Unicode’s by modern
platforms & browsers. But many websites still use the non-standard
text, so that we have to install the proprietary fonts in our computer, to
view those pages properly. We can solve this problem by adding
Padma add-on to your Firefox or Google chrome browser.

I am using this add-on in my browser and its very useful for reading
on-line newspapers, viewing Indic websites. This add-on currently supports
Telugu, Malayalam, Tamil, Devanagari (including Marathi), Gujarati, Bengali,
and Gurmukhi.

Now Enjoy reading Newspapers in your own languages. 🙂

Readability – Firefox Add-on that makes reading webpages easier

Hi all,

Readability is a Firefox add-on that makes reading web pages easier. By activating the Readability add-on on a particular web page, it compresses the original web page & displays only the main contents of that page (i.e. text).

So that we can easily go through the important data in a website by skipping the ads, images etc. You can activate it by just clicking the readability icon on Firefox status bar (or) by using the below keyboard shortcuts. By right clicking on the readability icon you can get other Styling Options.
