Say when you are browsing through internet pages and all of sudden you come to a page that does not respond due to some reasons (e.g. many people swarming the same page at the same time). Since you really need to get into the page, you keep refreshing the page consistently and only time will tell when the page will be back up again. I'm pretty sure you will eventually get frustrated, when fraction of browsing time is spent to keep an eye on that page.
Mr. Uptime is another useful Firefox plugin that exists to assist you with the problem and improves your browsing experience. When you stumble upon a broken page that's not reachable momentarily, Mr Uptime will present itself right below the top bar (see picture) and offers you with some options to take. You can let Mr Uptime to monitor the page and alert you when it is back up again or you can choose to simply ignore changes that take place in that page. Wait no more, get this plugin onboard. You can get detail explanations about this plugin by visiting its official page.
