The beta version of the Google Toolbar v2 for Firefox users has arrived. Here is a list of what’s new directly from the source:
Enhanced Search Box: “As you type a search query into the new Toolbar’s search box, you’ll see a list of useful suggestions based on popular Google searches, spelling corrections and your own Toolbar search history and bookmarks. You can also click the ‘G’ icon in the search box to search different Google sites, the current site, or sites for which you’ve installed custom search buttons.”
Google Safe Browsing: “Previously its own extension, we’ve integrated Google Safe Browsing into Google Toolbar – after all, who wouldn’t want it? Google Safe Browsing alerts you if a web page that you visit appears to be asking for your personal or financial information under false pretences.”
Subscribe to Feed: “You can now subscribe to your favorite web pages with just one click. Many different websites publish feeds with the latest updates to their sites so that, instead of visiting a website over and over for the latest news, you can use a feed reader to keep track of updates for you.
Send With Gmail (my personal favorite): “Have you been frustrated because you can’t set Gmail as your default mail client? We’ve solved that problem by adding a feature into Toolbar that automatically opens whenever you click on an email link.”
Custom Layouts: There are now three preset layouts available for you to arrange the controls on your toolbar.
