The internet is wonderful, but it’s also a landfill for many annoying things. Here are our top 10 online
annoyances and how you can fix them for a better browsing experience.

10. Too Many Ads

Ads are one of the most obvious (but nonetheless biggest) annoyances on the internet. It’s not necessarily
because they’re ads, but because there are so many of them and they’re frequently intrusive. Fortunately,
blocking them is easy. Just pick up a copy of an ad blocker for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and even Internet
Explorer.

9. Excessive Flash

Like ads, Flash might not be so bad if it was used in moderation. Or if it hadn’t become so bloated. Or it
didn’t often overtake your CPU. If Flash is driving you nuts, you have a couple of options. If you’re
looking for browser-specific solutions, you can pick up FlashBlock for Firefox, Chrome, Opera, or Safari.
Additionally, on Mac OS X, you can use FlashFrozen for a one-click solution to an overactive Flash
plug-in. You can also use ClickToFlash for Safari on Mac OS X so that you have to click to load any
embedded Flash movie on a web page.

8. Tedious Forms and Logins

While most web browsers save your passwords and help you fill out online forms, that’s only particularly
useful if you use one web browser. While you might stick with the same web browser on all your systems,
you’re often out of luck on your mobile devices. It’s also troublesome if you decide to eventually change
web browsers. Using a password service that works across everything you use—on desktop computers and
on your phones, portable media players, and tablets—puts this annoyance aside. Despite recent issues, I still
like LastPass for the job. Of course, there are a few other great options should you prefer them.

7. Registering for New Accounts

Sometimes you want to try out a web service without going through the trouble of registering online.
Sometimes you need to just use that service quickly and will have no use for that account later. Whatever
the reason may be, registration means giving out your personal info and that’s not always something you
want to do. Fortunately there are databases of public usernames and passwords for you to borrow in these
cases. BugMeNot is a great option and comes in browser-extension form for Chrome and Firefox, plus you
can access it via the BugMeNot web site which also provides a bookmarklet for virtually any browser.

6. Ugly and Confusing Web Sites

Not all web sites have simple and intuitive user interfaces, and many are just plain ugly. If you want to
improve a particular site, you can do that with Userstyles. Basically, they just override the CSS to make any
site look different (and hopefully more usable). There are also extensions and add-ons that help as well. For
example, you can alter YouTube (Firefox and Chrome), Facebook (most browsers), Twitter (using
Greasemonkey), and—of course—Gmail (Firefox and Chrome).

5. Endless Social Networks

Everyone (or every company, perhaps) is embracing social media. The upside is there are a lot of cool
webapps. The downside is you’re going to have trouble managing all those cool webapps. Unsurprisingly,
there are a handful of tools that help you manage your various social media accounts. For starters, check out
FellowUp, Nutshell Mail, and our top five social media managers.

4. Unhelpful Search Results

A lot of sites have ineffective search options (you know, like ours—but there’s a workaround!). Most of
you feel that even Google isn’t all that useful lately. You can, of course, learn a few techniques to help you
create better Google search queries. You can also try some alternative search engines and methods if you
want an alternative to Google. You’re not always going to find what you want, but learning a few new
tricks and expanding your options can be a big help.
