Google Toolbar 2

This is pretty cool, but my God does Blogspot suck worse than ever. I find it hard to believe I used that random, unreliable, unattended, disfigured jumble of insect shit for six months. Hey Ev, you are a worthless, soulless prick and now that you have the cash I would like my Blogger Pro refund, plus interest – it never worked. Oh and be sure to fuck yourself. Thanks, EO

PS – Have I mentioned this is National Do Not Fuck With Me Day? It is, but it only applies to me.

Google’s Toolbar 2.0, set to be officially announced late Thursday, is the first publicly available software that incorporates the technology Google gained when it acquired Blogger creator Pyra in February.

The Google toolbar is a strip of function buttons that sits at the top of a Web browser and lets people access features such as search without going directly to Google’s home page. Other companies, including Lycos and AskJeeves, offer their own such toolbars for download.

The new features of Google’s Toolbar 2.0 include Popup Blocker, which stops pop-up ads, and AutoFill, which automatically fills out Web forms with information stored locally on a user’s computer.

Another new feature is BlogThis, which lets people immediately create a posting on their blog about a site they are visiting. By clicking the BlogThis button on the toolbar, bloggers can automatically insert a link and highlighted text into their blog instead of having to move back and forth and cut and paste between the Web page and the blogging tools. Blogs are Web diaries that let people share their personal and professional lives through words, links, photos and so on. [CNET]
