For screen and file sharing we use RHUB Web Conferencing. It has been great for my organization.

I would try both http://www.proxynetworks.com and http://www.mikogo.com/. They are similar but different enough that you may prefer one over the other.

Why not YSlow ? It can be useful to optimize the page.

Really useful post – unfortunately nothing really new apart from pixel perfect.

Hi Web Design Ledger!

Maybe you would be interested in checking out Mikogo Firefox add-on. It’s a cross-platform freeware desktop sharing app. It allows a designer to share his/her screen live over the Web with 10 others. We’ve included a great range of features to facilitate the designers’ communication with their clients. You can find more info here: http://www.mikogo.com. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Thanks!

Firebug is always the best tool for me and I really like the Window Resizer you listed here. It helps me test the design in many resolution sizes with ease.

I have already used some of these in Firefox and my favourite is the Alexa add-on. It is great if you are an Alexaholic and like to keep an eye on your website’s Alexa rank.

I don’t use too many at the moment as it slows down the load up time for Firefox on my machine (well, when I increase my RAM I’ll be able to use more).

Will be coming back to this list when I have upgraded my RAM .

Agree with Cosmin on this. Don’t need Window Resizer when you can do the exact same with the Resize feature of the WebDev Toolbar. Also, props to Cosmin, as I didn’t realize that there was a ruler in the Toolbar as well (never paid much attention to what was in Misc). Guess I can get rid of MeasureIt…Especially because it can be flaky on occasion.
