Firefox 3 Beta 5 is out and, although it's a nice bit of kit, I only really wanted to post about it because of the awesome piece of design on the FF3b5 welcome page.

The gorgeous picture accompanying the FF3b5 homepage is of a giant retro robot being built in a utopian setting - very much Sky Captain style but with more colour ;)

When you search Google you tend to get a ton of extra data the sometimes you're really not looking for.

Normally you see, in a Google results page, the following data:

[title]
[description]
[link]

When you're looking for something in a hurry e.g. checking out other competitors in the SEO game, you often need to peruse the results pages fast!

So how do you compact Google search results?

I just happened to stumbleupon DaveN's blog whilst Googling for the pros & cons of having a UK website at a US IP address and I noticed his greasemonkey scripts page.

Now I haven't used Greasemonkey in a while but it's a handy little plugin for the Firefox web browser.

On Dave's page there's a totally handy little Google search compactor script for Greasemonkey.

Really handy, give it a try.
