Downloaded The Latest Google Toolbar Yet?

I know, I know... toolbars are emphatically Not For Everyone. But if you like your Google Toolbar, wouldn't you like a Google/OHNOROBOT Toolbar even better??

Ryan devised this thing for the toolbar where you can type the search term into the usual place, then mouseclick a tiny "robot" button, and it'll take you straight to ONR's search results for the term. To get it to work you have to upload Google Toolbar Version 4, but hey, FREE COMICS SEARCH IN YOUR BROWSER.

Click here to do the Robot.

Awesome, Ryan. (Links found by Robotics!)

What would be really impressive would be a Firefox search engine plug-in that could search OhNoRobot. I created one a while back for Comixpedia.org. It adds the search utility for that website to the embedded search engine in the top-right corner of Firefox. Works like a charm! (now I just need to re-submit it and rename it from 'Webcomics Wiki' -- ugh)

If I knew the search string mechanics that OhNoRobot uses, I could whip one up for that site, too.
