Wouldn’t be nice a toolbar that has a search box, some buttons (New Posts, User CP, etc.) and even notifies you when someone replied to a subscribed thread?

I have phobia towards any kind of bar... even that Adobe Acrobat bar in MS Word gives me the freak.
WHY? I dunno, seems like all bars do are to advertise a service/take advantage of your desktop/eliminate competition (especially those search engine bars)/ and/or to spy on your online activities. Yes, Google, I'm sure your bar didn't make u the billionaire that you are now by not cutting out all other search engines. As for easy access to a web page, I'm sure the favorites menu does nothin. It just sits there looking pretty. I'm just kidding. Thumbs up to cluttered desktop. Wait until Windows LongHorn comes out, you can even image the number of helper panes Microsoft will bundle with LongHorn IE. Last edited by alienationware; 08-26-2004 at 01:44 AM. |

I'd rather visit the site for everything. A toolbar is over-the-top IMO.

It woudnt be too hard to organise a toolbar, but the only toolbar I use is the google one. People generally have a distrust of toolbars, probably due to the number of crooked places that try and automatically install them on your browser.

My second choice of toolbar would have been the alexa toolbar so I could check the Traffic Rank for various sites. I think google should introduce a traffic rank like alexa, that would be cool.

i don't use IE, and bars like google are working on IE only. other browsers i'm using are not supported, and still if i wanna use google it's in cache so it will load preety fast. in fact of knowing how google is working (payments etc.) it's not my leader try vivsimo.com, or the old hotbot.com first one works great and hit's and ranking's are not payed

i don't like toolbars... they just clutter my screen. if i need something, i just go to the respective site. afterall, that's what the favourites are for.
