Generally speaking, I am not so much into the toolbar scene. Then I heard that Yahoo was going to be making some worthwhile additions to their toolbar. Could this be a new era for the toolbar; collectively speaking?

Delicious received some of the benefit of the Yahoo Toolbar team’s work, as recently noted on the Yahoo Search Blog. Developers created a Delicious button for US users of the toolbar, to allow for quick access to one’s account on the popular bookmarking site.

Toolbar Product Managers Alwin Chan and Jon Granrose briefly described the updates for both IE and Firefox in the post:

On the IE front we’ve added support for tabbed browsing (yay!). The latest release (v 6.3) now includes the ability to use tabbed browsing from within Internet Explorer 5 and 6 so you can tab to your heart’s content in advance of the Internet Explorer 7 release.

On the Firefox side, we just released version 1.1.1 for all our supported counties. This improves a few things you’ve told us about with bookmarks, mail alerts, and Anti Spy, among other things. Source: WebProNews
