For today’s tweak, I’m testing out the free Electric Venom version of the Alexa tool bar, created in partnership with Amazon.com. Some of the very cool features include:

• Pop-up blocking.
• Google and Alexa searching for both the web and viewed sites.
• News and stock updates.
• Built-in dictionary and thesaurus search.
• Page rankings, site information and recommended similar sites.
• The ability to write reviews of sites as you visit.
• Built-in Amazon product searching and one-click purchasing (if enabled).

Installation takes only a matter of minutes, so feel free to check it out and know that when you use it you’re supporting EV!
