Wow - I just noticed that CNET / Download.com reviewed The Web 2.0 Toolbar and gave it 5 Stars! Thank you CNET and I am glad you like it.

This toolbar will keep you on top of all the latest and greatest social networking sites and then some.

The Web 2.0 Toolbar looks like just about every other toolbar, except it comes jam packed with links to all sorts of Web 2.0 social networking sites, as well as news, blogs, and videos. Somehow it manages to squeeze in all the standard components–e-mail notification, weather forecast, and pop-up blocker–and all worked perfectly. Each shortcut button lists numerous links that are constantly being updated. Within each drop-down menu, you can delete the ones you don’t want in order to make room for new ones. The built-in radio offers a nice mix of radio stations to choose from, and we were able to easily add our own. It played without any interruption, a rarity among similar toolbars.

About the only complaint we can think of, if you want to call it a complaint, is that there’s just not enough space on the toolbar to add extras. We added some of our favorite applications (MS Word, Excel), but they fell off the toolbar. Even if you’re not into the social networking scene, this toolbar offers plenty of useful features to choose from.
