SiteLauncher is a Firefox extension that gives you a super-quick way to to open your favorite websites using only your keyboard. One special hotkey brings up the 'Launcher', followed by a unique key to launch a site.
SiteLauncher is especially useful as a super-fast method for opening websites you use often throughout the day, for example, many people would probably want to add Google, Gmail, Facebook, and Twitter, to SiteLauncher - what sites to include is entirely up to you.
Default hotkey is Ctrl+Space (or Ctrl+Alt for Mac users).
