Twitter Search Button for the Google Toolbar
I’ve been finding myself searching Twitter for information as of late. There was not a decent Twitter search button for the Google Toolbar (only a couple that use the Google Custom Search Engine), so I created one. It’s simple and easy to use, just like my Google Reader search button.
- Click the link below to install it
- When you want to search Twitter, type a search term into your Google Toolbar
- Click the Twitter button on the Google Toolbar
- You are taken to the Twitter search result page for your search term

Why the Google Toolbar does not include a search button for Google Reader by default is beyond me! I searched for a Google Reader button in the button gallery, and much to my dismay the only one I found does not perform a search. I then took it upon myself to create my own search button for Google Reader. If you search your reader items as much as I do, you’re going to love it!

However, when I came back to work the next day I was disappointed to learn that it didn’t work behind a SOCKS proxy.

Portable Google Chrome
It didn’t take long for someone to come out with a portable version of Google Chrome. A German guy named Carsten Knobloch (please forgive me if I get the name wrong) managed to hack and compile a portable version of Chrome that works pretty well. Hopefully an “official portable version” will eventually make it into the Portable Apps suite.
