I just put together a toolbar for IE and Firefox if anyone is interested. It has the forum, the main site, Slow Trav and all of our blogs already embedded. No spyware etc. goes on your computer.

Have fun http://expatsinitaly.ourtoolbar.com/

You are adding so many new fun things! I'm amazed!

Just (finally!) got around to switching to Firefox, and found this thread in the archives. Thought I'd bring it to the attention of other Firefox (well, and IE) users in case they hadn't seen it.

I've already clicked from the toolbar; excellent job Cristina (as usual)

P.S. Just clicked on the blogs; maybe we could do with an update to the toolbar? I know, I just got it, and now I'm all demanding...honestly, I'm really fine with it as is

You??? Welcome to Firefox.

Cristina,

Has the toolbar been updated after you redid the site in August?

Yes, me...I know...will wonders never cease?

And thanks for the welcome to Firefox...meglio tardi che mai!

Anyone who hasn't tried Firefox yet, you'll do yourself a big favor by switching. It's so easy and runs *much* smoother than IE.

I only switched yesterday afternoon, and I'm already in love

Cristina,
This morning I have been changing my passwords on all the sites I visit and now I find that on the Expats Toolbar (so very useful), the E-Mail Notification (even MORE useful) says [Failed] and shows a Red Cross.....I cant seem to access my E-Mails via that route any more.

Thankyou

Have you remembered to change your E-mail Notifier settings? If you have changed your passwords you will most likely need to change the password there to the current one.

I thought I had done - but looking again I realised that I did not have the 'edit' button available....I've now done it and it's OK - Thankyou.

Wow, Christina, this is so cool to have the toolbar now.

I clicked on the blogs and only a few came up. I figured it was the ones most recently updated, alas, no....


what's the criteria for being on the list in the toolbar?

thanks!

I am going to be updating the toolbar today to add all of the blogs. I will post when it is ready.

thanks!

Hey Cristina,
The updated tool bar is awesome.... I like the idea of the Expats Instant Messaging and the updated blog list.
The weather 'window' is good too - though the nearest I can get ot me is either Monza or Lugano

Thank you for this. I'm slowly learning my way around Firefox still, but this is a great addition!

Ooohweee! Excellent update, Cristina!
