This week I am at the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco at Moscone Center West. It’s been a great workshop so far. My favorite workshops so far have been:

• Mobile Web 2.0
• Bringing Web 2.0 to your Enterprise
• Best Kept Secrets in SEO
• Tim O’Reilly’s Keynote Speech

It’s only Wednesday right now, so I am looking forward to the next couple days. Listening to these top innovators in our field has really brought some great ideas to our web and what is happening in the next few years. I think the social web is really growing. The mobile web is where we will be in the next couple years. Having the ability to have web applications on the handset will be the future. I am excited to implement some of these new best practices to websites that we have in under the 3wpros banner.

Here are 5 plugins for FireFox that I think are essential to your social networking network online.

Twitter Bar
“The twitterbar extension allows you to post to twitter from the firefox addressbar. A small unobtrusive grey icon sits to the right of your addressbar, clicking on it will post your tweet, mouseover will tell you how many characters you have left. You can also post by typing ‘ –post’ or hit the grey arrow when visiting a webpage to carry out a URL tweet (i.e it adds ‘Currently Browsing: ‘ in front of the url). Options for the extension include safe/secure mode, open twitter in new tab after posting and the ability to change the URL tweet ‘Currently browsing’ text.”

Online Bookmark Manager
“This extension allows you to access all your personal bookmarks online. If you save or edit an online bookmark that change is instantly made to all your other computers. No synchronization is required because you are actually using the bookmarks in real time. Perfect for those that use multiple computers at home, for work, traveling, at a friends house, or Internet cafe. You will never lose or misplace a bookmark as they will be saved safely online.”

Shareaholic
“Found something awesome online and can’t wait to pass it on? Tired of copying and pasting endless URLs? Shareaholic allows you to share, bookmark and e-mail web pages quickly without leaving your browser. Supported services: * digg * del.icio.us * facebook * friendfeed * google bookmarks * magnolia * mixx * reddit * simpy * stumbleupon * truemors * tumblr * twitter * bzzster!”

Gift Wisdom
“GiftWisdom Social GiftRegistry for the holidays for those expensive gifts. PUT AN END TO RE-GIFTING FROM NOW ON! We launched this site by connecting popular online features such as social bookmarking add-on, online payments, paypal, and universal wishlists to create a site thats lets friends come together to give meaningfully.
