Screaming Penguin - Source Does Matter

So Google is releasing a Google Toolbar for Firefox. The dropped the GoogleBar people a note letting them know. That is all over the web this afternoon.

Check this out though:

"It has pretty much the same features as the latest IE toolbar except of course for things like the popup blocker," the e-mail said. Pop-up blocking is an in-built feature of Firefox.

"We really appreciate the work you folks did to fill this gap in our products for so long," the e-mail said, adding that a current link to the Googlebar project on Google's toolbar Web site will be maintained, "so users can make the choice of which toolbar they'd like to install."

That is not being evil.
