Google to Release Firefox Toolbar

Posted by samzenpus on from the new-toolbar dept.

daria42 writes "Google is about to release a Firefox version of its toolbar, according to an e-mail sent to developers of the open source GoogleBar project. The e-mail claims to have been sent by Google engineer Fritz Schneider and is dated 1 July. "It has pretty much the same features as the latest IE toolbar except of course for things like the popup blocker," the e-mail said (Pop-up blocking is an in-built feature of Firefox)."

    Obviously he meant RedHat.

    I don't see what your problem is. RedHat employs most of the top kernel contributors anyway so they effectively own & steer Linux's development.

    In my way of thinking, you should be embarrassed to be running Red Hat.

    Use rpm? I'd rather run Windows.
