Just installed Amazon’s new A9 toolbar where you can search the web (results from Google), as well as Amazon’s: Search Inside the Book™.

A9 toolbar features:

1. Search box (Google results & Amazon products)

2. Search Highlighter (automatically highlight your search terms in yellow.)
3. Search History
4. Diary
5. Site Info (Alexa technology: website info, related links, stats/traffic rank, backward links, and user ranking.)
6. Pop-up blocker

I’m especially fond of the ‘diary’ which enables you to take notes on any web page (entries are automatically saved whenever you stop typing or when you click to another page), and view those notes whenever you re-visit that page… saving me the trouble of handwriting little notes on my yellow stickies or having to open a new notepad file.

Makes my life a little easier - or I’m just getting lazier. Well, whatever… I think it’s got possibilities.

Get the A9 toolbar here.
