Vindicated! I have been advocating (to little avail) the Google Toolbar since I discovered it what seems like years (probably 1 year) ago. But now, the Consumate Consumer, my pal, Connie Chun, who is the most discerning user of technology this side of Walt Mossberg, has written the following about it:
Google Toolbar – this tool is amazing! Many are familiar with their toolbar ver.1, which featured a search form right on your browser. Well, that was somethin’ alright, but now, ver.2 features a host of new features that make browsing, well, fun again, including the best pop-up blocker I have ever tried (and I’ve tried many), the Auto-Fill function, which will automatically recognize the most commonly used data entry fields on any web form and populate them with a click of a button (including encrypted credit card information if you wish), and a tool with which you can conveniently reference a current web page on a blog, among the important ones. If you don’t use this, then I’m positive that your user experience on the web is much poorer than mine.
Well put Connie! And thanks for vindicating me! You can read more from Connie on her site, which is refreshingly spartan. I would add that the Google Toolbar would be complete if they would just add bookmarks. But until such time as they do, you can use the Yahoo Companion which has a great bookmarks feature. Use it, and you’ll always have your bookmarks handy.
