FriendFeed Comments Gray Begone

I love FriendFeed. You can follow me there. I must be getting old, though, because I find the gray comment text too light to easily read. Maybe it’s my monitor…

Greasemonkey to the rescue! I wrote a script that changes the color of FriendFeed comments.

To use the script:

• Get and install Greasemonkey
• Click here to view the script in your browser
• Copy and paste it into a text editor
• Save it with the filename graybegone.user.js
• Start Firefox
• Drag and drop the file onto Firefox
• Select install on the dialog box that appears

Feel free to change and use this script however you want. If you want a different color than I chose, replace #444 with the color you want.
