Google To Release Toolbar for Firefox Users

Tuesday July 5, 2005
AHHH!! Yes!! This from mozdev.org:
"Hey Googlebar folks, long time no talk. I thought I'd drop you a note to give a heads up on something Google will be releasing next week: a version of our IE Toolbar for Firefox. It will most likely be released on July 7th, but press releases will go out at 9pm on July 6th. Since you were in the Google-toolbar-for-firefox space first, it's conceivable that the press might contact you for comment. If they do it would be great if you could hold of replying until our press releases go out on the 6th.

Some more specifics:

  • It will work with Firefox 1.0+
  • It will work on Win2k/XP, MacOS X 10.2, and Linux 8.0+
  • It has pretty much the same features as the latest IE toolbar except of course for things like the Popup Blocker."
I love Firefox. I actually was a diehard Internet Explorer user until about 3 months ago when I decided I really needed to check this out, and I've never looked back.
