Twitbin provides send, share and upload images functions. It also provides quicker assimilation of tweets than when using a unique Twitter client.

No. 4: Pocket - Page Saver 

You can save pages using Pocket

Pocket lets you save pages for viewing later. Say you're perusing Web pages and something catches your eye, but you don't have the time to finish reading -- or you're simply collecting material to read later, when commuting, for example.
Pocket archives the page and text for you, a bit like a bookmark or a favorite.
Added bonus: You can sync material saved within Firefox cross-platform, because Pocket apps are available for iOS and Android too.

No. 5: AutoPager - Auto Next Page Loader 

Autopager automatically loads the next page in a series. You know that "Next" click that you have to make to read long stories, or see long Google search results pages. Well, Autopager loads the page for you as you scroll down.
It's slightly cumbersome in that it needs page scripts to work, which is why it's a runner-up. However, it's great for infinite one-page Google search results, and that alone puts it in the top five Firefox research-friendly apps.
