Tab Progress bar extension in actionIf you already know that Firefox 3.7 and beyond will feature page loading progress bars in the tabs themselves (making you a true Firefox fan), you may also want to know there is an extension that lets you try this feature about a year before it becomes generally available.

Tab Progress Bar, developed by Frank Yan, adds just this feature which I found so far to be more informational than the old common progress bar in the status area.

Get Tab Progress Bar from Mozilla Add-ons.

Just an FYI: If you are a Tab Mix Plus user, the Tab Progress Bar extension will not work. Perhaps the authors will get together and resolve the conflicts as it would be nice to see this along with TMP.
