not good like google toolbar for internet explorer

By soraroxas , # Sep 2, 2007 4:08:31 PM

I love this!

One of the things I miss on Opera that I had on Mozilla, is Google toolbar.

But I miss google bookmarks button (you know, that blue star?) I kept there bookmarks to webpages I used the most. My browser bookmarks are just crowded)

So, are you planning on making a button for it too?

And if I may ask, does this Gmail button's envelope 'opens' when there's a new mail?

Also, any hope for google wiki, you tube, wiki and spell check?
Can I suggest some more? Maybe not for google toolbar, but if you are planning making some other widgets: Del.icio.us
Thanks! I give it 5 stars and putting in my favs!

I surely would like to have it dockable, too! I tried it, and liked it, but it "blocked the view" so to speak. By "dockable" in my case I mean the Opera browser would "know it's there" and give it room, not scrolling up screen content behind it!

(Do you already have a Bookmarks thingie on there whose content can be ported from one computer to another ... via one's gmail userid? If not, I surely would love to see that, too!)

I second polyphem355's request for site-search and gozu's for docking. I tried to make a custom site-search button, but (unless it takes JavaScript code) I can't access the current URL.

Google Toolbar is one of my favorite toolbars and I use it alot with firefox and ie. the one thing that I love the most is auto fill, picaso could you please help add those to the toolbar widget since iam unable to download the real thing in opera?

How do you download this? all it does is take me to the opera setup file

By lpullar39 , # Jun 14, 2007 7:11:17 AM

Need google bookmark urgently for opera (In chinese:确实需要google书签)

By allanpun , # Jun 8, 2007 3:31:28 AM

It does not act as the actual Google Toolbar? I mean: It does not submit any record of what websites I visit, etc. to Google, Inc?

By Aleksandersen , # Apr 25, 2007 5:49:35 PM

Docking is required.

Can't have a toolbar with its own window.

The description that pops up as the mouse cursor hovers over the different icons is rough and ugly. It shouldn't be black, it should be light yellow, smaller, and only appear after you hover over an icon for more than a second or two. (mimic he Windows UI)

Otherwise, great job!

I too would like to see Google Bookmarks added somehow.

By Pap , # Apr 21, 2007 4:45:40 AM

how about any blog posting??
after all there are sites like multiply that have a solid fan following..

Google bookmarks button !!

By TaranQ , # Apr 11, 2007 3:24:07 PM

Suggested feature: Google Bookmarks button. For Firefox, there's a really popular add-on called GMark. An emulation, or even an imitation of it would be fantastic.

Having perused google's selection of gadgets for Google Desktop and widgets for Opera, I can't help but notice the prominence of your Google Toolbar for Opera and its corrosponding cousin in GD. Essentially, I'm saying that you, gabydewilde, are a leading developer and your work has enormous influence on the lives and productivity on others. I think we all appreciate the time and effort spent on your service.

New feature please: Button for "Search in current site". much easier than having to type "query site:www.example.com"

By polyphem355 , # Mar 17, 2007 7:14:31 PM

I've used local bookmarks for years and can't count the number of times I've lost them. I've begun using Google bookmarks and can now access them where ever I am. It's a tremendous benefit, would be most grateful to see it added.
