atom tweaks

I’ve been spending quite a lot of time getting to know my new acer aspire one and this weekend I finally feel like I’ve reached a major milestone. After grabbing a few scripts from userstyles.org for the firefox stylish addon my web browsing ux is now satisfactory. Among the other addons that have filled the gap left by this tiny, pain-in-the-ass-keyboard are Speed Dial (loads thumbnails of your favorite sites in newly created tabs) and Foxmarks for bookmark syncing. Mostly the tweaks were about cutting down on the amount of typing that has to be done and making the best use of the small screen space available. I’ve also turned auto-hide on, a feature I thought I would never use for any length of time, but it saves a good quarter of and inch of realestate at the bottom of the screen so it had to go.
