Latest Version of Google Tool Bar has Internet form Spell check

Well, basically the title says it all.
I'm not sure how long this has been out, so a number of you may already know about this, but for those who are picky about their spelling ()... this handy little device makes sure, with a single click, that anything written you submit on the Internet is spelled correctly

Very handy IMO

You can also now download a version that works with Firefox, it can be found here: http://toolbar.google.com/firefox/index.html

And yet, I still fear people will find new and inventive ways of butchering the english langauge.

Considering that you have been rattling along about this since this afternoon, it doesnt surprise me that this thread was coming...

Where does the Google bar go? I take it it goes over where my MSN bar and/or Yahoo bar currently reside, at the top of the screen. I have to admit, I would rather have google up there than yahoo...

how long does this take to download? What else does it have in it, other than the spellchecker, considering that some of us, like me, just type as fast as we can, and are not particularily worried about misspelling words.

@ Aegis: We prefer modify or bastardize.

Anyways, I already have Ispell, I'm just to lazy to hit that lousy button at the far top of the screen... It's not my fault they make me move my hand to reach it...

Yes, it also comes for IE

The toolbar sits, for me (I use Firefox, but I imagine IE is the same), just below my various browser commands, beneath the URL window.

For those who have never used the Google toolbar, it also has some other nice features, like being able to search within a site, and a highlight function that brings up any keyword you have typed into the search function.

Perfect, if I do say so myself.

But I just downloaded ieSpell... something you people trying to use on firefox can't see. However, now I have no excuse for mispelling... darn.

How did we get on the subjects of bastards? Right, I forgot about the genealogy of SYM...

Yes... but in SYM, "bastard" is probably one of the more... er.. normal.. forms of offspring...

When will they invent the Magrus Lush Spelling Option? You can type out words and phrases like "Hi there" and it will translate to "Drop da top! Woo!" Or maybe "My name is Earl" and you get "Shhoo I got yo Earl right 'ere." Learn to type like a real lush with the Magrus Lush Spelling Option.


The Magrus Lush Spelling Option kit comes with everything you see here. Batteries not included. Money back guarantee is void in all fifty states, Europe, Asia, and the rest of the world. The Magrus Lush Spelling Option might not be suitable for children, the elderly, or anyone in between. Void where prohibited.

It's also one of those topics that is sometimes to frightening to speak about in anything above hushed whispers
