Greasemonkey. You should get it.

Allow me to recommend something. You don't have to be a programmer to use it. It's fun and useful and you will be recommending it to others pretty soon. It's Greasemonkey.

Greasemonkey is a Firefox add-on. When you install it, it lets you modify the way you see any page on the web you want. Every time you add a "script" to Greasemonkey, it changes the way you see and interact with a particular site; there's a big repository of scripts at http://www.userscripts.org.

For example, take a look under http://userscripts.org/tags/livejournal : one script lets you comment on posts without leaving your friends page, one lets you ignore your friends' posts which have a given tag, one displays the city which anonymous commenters with IP recorded come from.

You can get Greasemonkey here.
