Beside adding and enhancing its basic features, 2 major enhancement on Google Toolbar for Internet Explorer is the Chrome’s new tab page style, and Quick Search Box. While most people quite familiar with the new tab page style, but how many of you heard about Quick Search Box before?
Quick Search Box or QSB is the shortcut to open Google search box, outside of internet browser. If you take a look at it, which is placed just beside the Windows start button, you can guess that it was aimed squarely to Live Search which by default powering Internet Explorer search box. Google Toolbar for Firefox doesn’t have this feature, because of one reason… the default search engine is already powered by Google…
QSB does not limited for only perform search, it can open small applications such as notepad and solitaire as well. It works like the ‘run‘ command on Windows start menu, but the number of applications it can opened this way is limited such as, it can’t open Microsoft Office application using key phrase such as ‘winword’.
With all these features including Windows start menu looks alike button, does this sign that one day Google will come out with its own operating system?
