Hi everyone,
I want to suggest to think about whether we want to create/let create a
Wikipedia toolbar (as you all know from Ebay, Yahoo, Google, Nature etc.).
This would enable even the most active Wikipedians (besides the less active
visitors) to instantly search WP and - optionally later - to benefit from
other 1-click features (eg "My watchlist" or "In the news" as well as
"Recent changes" or "My contributions"). Even if I am not (yet) a
programmer
being capable of programming this ... I have found a page offering a toolbar
kit (
www.custom-toolbars.com). Further development issues should be
clarified when a general opinion has been made ... pls discuss.

This thing used to work for Mozilla (I expect Firebird as well):
http://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/misc.html#add_sidebar
There seems to have appeared a bug of some sort which prevents it from
really working properly (you can find a link to the bug on the page
linked above).
A little introduction for the brave ones: drag the *link* "add sidebar"
(yes, click and drag on the green text) to your bookmarks, visit the
page you want to "sidebar-ize" and click that link from your bookmarks.
Presto!
