Island Roots Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Now comes the decision of whether or not to install it. What I like about Firefox is the minimal navigation area at the top which leaves more space for the webpages you browse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..Vector.. Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 I'll leave the toolbar, as it'll just clutter up me firefox, but the suggest thing looks cool, doesn't work with Deer Park though :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bayrider Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 not a big fan of those toolbars. The only one i use is the default Firefox one that already lets me search google, dictionary.com, imdb etc. Dont need 2 google searches + my google homepage.

[bear] Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 why use this when... firefox has a search engine.. already!pointless to me 586179024[/snapback] it is really nice. You guys complain about the fact that you already have a search engine in firefox.. obviously you didn't even bother to click the link and look at its' features. Figures.. :rolleyes: It can auto link addresses, fill forms, use the suggest feature, it can spellcheck, it can even translate a webpage right from the toolbar.. I'd say you cannot compare this and the built in search engine in firefox. Please think before you post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhav Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 what's annoying is that google suggest and the toolbar don't integrate. i mean, i wanted the suggest drop down to appear in the toolbar search box as well as or instead of the normal search box. the toolbar is useful for searching news, images, froogle etc. from one bar. but i don't use it anyway.

..Vector.. Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 why a toolbar when you already have the search box? 586179454[/snapback] Because it's got the other functions like Spellcheck etc. i suppose :) BTW, anybody hacked it to work with Deer Park yet :shifty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trek Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 hmm... makes FF look cluttered. (N) Maybe i just like minimalistic interfaces.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
