Firefox Netbook Optimization Kit
Most netbooks and quite a few other – mostly mobile – devices run on a low resolution that no desktop user would want to work with anymore, largely because the screen is not big enough for some applications. The width is usually not the problem, the height is. Most websites for instance are optimized for a width of around 1000 pixels top, which netbooks are able to deliver with their 1024 standard width. The height of only 600 pixels on many devices on the other hand requires lots of downwards scrolling on many websites.
Some Ghacks readers may remember Firefox collections, which are user generated add-on compilations.
