Vimperator - Firefox Vimmed

I came across Vimperator - a great extension for Mozilla Firefox that impersonates vim. I cannot count how many times I have wished many of my applications to behave like vim and how many times have I pressed :. Not because I am a geek, but because I am addicted to productivity through vim.

Ability to do things without having to use mouse or even the Ctrl/Alt/Shift keys, without having to move my hands off the keyboard is great for productivity. You can choose to disagree, and probably it is not something that can be explained. It can only be experienced, and vim is not easy initially. But it is a different road once you cross that tipping point, that you will want to travel on always. This extension might not get popular, and needs some improvements, but it is great for vim addicts. Keep up the good work Martin Stubenschrott!
