Create your own custom toolbar
Wednesday, September 05, 2007
There are a lot of bad, spyware-ridden toolbars out there, but a useful toolbar is priceless. Great toolbars include Google Toolbar, which integrates search into the browser window and the StumbleUpon toolbar that accesses random web pages that you may be interested in based on search terms you define.
If you want to create your own, Conduit allows anyone to incorporate RSS feeds, streaming audio/podcasts, drop down menus, integrated search, news tickers, weather, chat and a logo into a custom toolbar that your site visitors can then download. Here is what my custom toolbar would look like if I had one:
Your toolbar could include up to date at the top of the users computer screen or could incorporate your latest broadcasts or even stream your live radio content. Sports fans would appreciate a localized toolbar that had stats or a schedule built into a news ticker. If you already have a significant number of subscribers to your RSS feed, you already have potential installers of your toolbar.
