The Google Deskbar. - UBB.Developers

Click this link to read about it. I love this thing.

Sweet! Especially like the custom search feature for adding searches from other sites.

I like the fact that I can have Mozilla open and use it since the browser toolbar is only in IE. It is amazingly fast too.

indeed, i love when google does somethign that doesn't end up bloated as hell

.

Definitely the coolest thing about it is the custom searches. I have added theses to mine:

To add them to your deskbar click on 'Options...' in the menu and then the 'Customized Searches' tab. Click on the 'Add...' button. Copy and paste the Title of the links above into the 'Name for deskbar menu:' and the URL to the 'URL' box. Then click ok. You must do this for each of the links separately as there is no way to import (or export) Custom Searches, though I'm told this feature might be added in the future. Note that the Amazon.com links are populated with my associates tag (miltonbowlingcen) If you have an Amazon.com associates tag you may replace mine with it, otherwise you may just use mine.

hehe, thanks for the pointer, I've been using the toolbar for a while now since bookie opinted it out to me
