Google Toolbar increases your ability to find information from anywhere on the web. This means you can quickly and easily use Google to search from any website location, without returning to the Google home page to begin another search. The Google Toolbar updates itself automatically, so you never need to install a newer version as long as you use the Toolbar. You can determine which version of the Toolbar you have by clicking the "Settings" button on the Toolbar and selecting "Help" > "About Google Toolbar."

I use it to replace the existing search; I don't have the toolbar enabled. That way search results can open in a new tab instead of in the existing one. If the default box can do that I never found the setting.

If you want to make search results open in a new tab just get TabMixPlus The absoloute MUST HAVE for firefox and tell it to open search results in a new tab! Here is an image of where the settings are

Get TabMixPlus

Less crap then the Google toolbar and WAY more functionality!

Actually, you don't even need TabMix. Just type about:config in the address bar. Then search for the follow setting:

browser.search.openintab

Change the value to True and you're good to go. No extensions needed!

Ya Know, instead of a big bloated addon you can just add search plugins for all of your wants and needs
Google Images, Gmail and Google Earth - http://mycroft.mozdev.org/ They're All There! Just Search!
Or you could just make bookmarks in the "Built in" "No Install Necessary" Bookmark toolbar to Google Images, Gmail and Google Earth

This version, 3.0, allows you to use all the features of the Google toolbar while looking identical to the standard FireFox search box -- so no bloating.
Still, the toolbar provides tons of features that I find quite useful and would require about a dozen addons to replicate.

So, bloated? Not at all. I think its a very nice addition to FireFox.

What are you're favorite features of the new Google toolbar?
for example what are the features that could replicated by multiple other extensions?

I use Google Bookmarks, the built-in text box spellcheck, multiple searches, and GMail button. OK, all of these can be created from several addons/extensions, but why have several when I can have one?

It's about ease of use and simplicity. And I use it on my IE at work where I cannot have Firefox.

Quiet Easily Done.

There is another good reason! Browser cross compatibility!
