Lesser known VS 2010 extensions that provide great all purpose functionality?

What VS 2010 extensions do you recommend for improving all purpose development? I've been having a look through the ones on MSDN, started to wonder if there were any that provide some great/unique features but haven't really got popular for some reason? :)

Also wondering if there are any other repositories for VS extensions?

+3  A: 

StructureAdornment and VSCommands 2010 are really usefull.

A Vim plugin, like ViEmu or VsVim, is the only way to code in VS.

Using VsVim here. Is ViEmu better?

No idea, but you need at least a Vim-based plugin.

@Avatar They provide Vi-like keybindings for VS. Have you ever used Vi? Its very different, but I believe its the fastest way to edit.

@mathepic nope. But, got the add-in going to try it soon. Thanks for that :)

@Avatar I hope you like it, but it may not be for you. Its fast editing, but only once you get used to it.
