The new Yahoo! companion search tool bar thingie offers a bunch of stuff like pop-up blocking, search within site, highlight search term and the usual Yahoo! stuff like access to calendar, bookmarks and mail, but what *I* like is the right click access to search. Now I search on everything like crazy-- love it!

(I feel like such a ho, but I love it!)

BTW, I never noticed I had google access in my rightclick until I took the screenshot. What a difference a bit of white space, and icon and a good call to action make. "google search" vs. "Search the web for term" are day and night apart in clarity.

You could always just get a browser that's good enough to have that feature built in from the start... like Firebird :-P

I'm assuming Ctrl+click works on the Mac to bring up the context menu?

Long before google deskbar was dave's. But as picasso said, Good artists borrow, great artists steal...

And I disagree about the use of rightclick.. if you are a mouser, rather than a typist, than it is very useful, as many searches one does is in context of another task-- say, reading email. The real problem... and where microsoft could gain advantage... is in application integration.

I prefer left click and reversing things.

There are way too many mouse bugs in windows, wish they could fix them.
