Streaming Internet Radio | chart music | full albums

A few weeks ago, we moved content on the Streaming Internet Radio toolbar to free up space for new content. That content has now been added to your toolbar.

Now, you can check out similar websites to the one you are currently on by clicking a link. You can check out the latest in viral videos and can also play a selection of top, free games.

If you are looking for the RSS feed reader on your toolbar - don't worry. It hasn't been deleted. it has been moved to the left of the radio player to make way for the new content.

Over the coming weeks, we will be reviewing how popular the new content is. Please tell us what you think of the new additions. You can reply via this blog post, or through our contact form.

Our YouTube gadget is attracting great interest on the toolbar Apps Marketplace - to date, it has attracted over 1,000,000 users.

We are really pleased at the huge number of people using our gadget and would like to thank each and every one of you, however this is impossible. So, if you are a YouTube gadget user - THANK YOU!

If you're not a Streaming Internet Radio toolbar user, and would like to add our YouTube gadget to your toolbar, please click the 2go button:

We have updated our text translator form so that it automatically detects the input language - just like the official Google translate form.

To use our translate form, click: Lingo > Translate > Text translator

We have added a new Spell Checker to the Lingo section of the Streaming Internet Radio toolbar. The reason behind this change was to remove advertising that was associated with the previous spell checking system that we had adopted.

How to use
When you find yourself completing a form, click the Spell check button:
Lingo > Spell check

A unobtrusive spell check button will appear (ABC):

Enter your text onto the form as normal. When complete, click the Spell check button to check your text. Words that are spelt incorrectly will be underlined. Click the underlined word to correct the spelling.

Once you have completed spell checking, or if no errors have been found, click the submit button to complete your entry.

You may have previously read that we have produced a new Socialiser toolbar and that it has Google Buzz integrated. Now, we have updated the Buzz section of the toolbar so that more tools are included - we will add even more as they become available.

If you have a Gmail account, but don't yet have Google Buzz, you can turn it on by clicking the link in your toolbar - you can also update your Google Buzz settings via the toolbar as well!

How to Buzz
There are two options available to you...

1) Link with a note
To create a Buzz with a simple link, click the Buzz it button and a pop-up window will open. Check that the information is correct, add a note if you wish, then click the Post Item button.

2) Link with content and a note
If you wish to share more than just a simple link on Google Buzz, highlight the content you wish to share with your mouse. now, click the Buzz it button on your toolbar - a pop-up window will open. Check that the information you are sharing is correct, add a note if you wish, then click the Post Item button. You can share images, video and more!

Searching Google Buzz
You can also search Google Buzz directly from your toolbar. To do this, click the down arrow adjacent to the Go button on your toolbar.

Select:  buzz gmail.com.

When you have activated Google buzz search in your toolbar, simply enter your search terms and click the Go button - your Gmail account will open, along with the results of your Buzz query.

We have decided to introduce a new toolbar to our toolbar grouping system. The reason for this change is to streamline our social offering. It makes more sense to have one social networking toolbar, rather than one toolbar for each network.

The Tweeterbar and the Facebooking toolbars will soon disappear from the Streaming Internet Radio toolbar group menu - they will be replaced by the Socialiser toolbar.

What do you have to do?
Nothing. The change will happen automatically.

What's different about the Socialiser toolbar?
Not much. As we previously mentioned - the change is happening because it makes sense to have one toolbar than many. The Socialiser toolbar gives you quick access to different services. We offer support for Facebook, Twitter, Google Buzz and many more social networking sites.

I don't want to lose my other toolbars
Don't worry - the Tweeterbar and Facebooking toolbars have not been deleted, they have just been removed from our default toolbar offering. If you wish to continue to use them, you can do so - please note that you may need to download and install to use them.

We are proud to release our free Google Buzz bookmarklet to the web. The bookmarklet will generate a pop-up window in your browser which allows you to share webpages via Google Buzz (through Google Reader).

Please share it with your friends (Right click & Add to Favourites):

 

Please note that the above bookmarklet is the basic version of our script. The version contained within the Streaming Internet Radio toolbar allows you to highlight text on a webpage and to automatically incorporate into a Google Buzz.

Google Buzz is the new application to be integrated with Gmail - think of Buzz as a way of sharing information with your email contacts.

If you have Gmail, no set-up is required. With Buzz, you can share information to the world, or just to your friends. you can see images with your posts, can connect sites that you already use and see updates in real time. Buzz gives you interesting stuff and weeds out the stuff you are likely to skip.

To access Google Buzz from your toolbar, click:
Menu > Tools > Google Tools > Google Buzz

Try it - Click the Google Buzz button to share our blog post!

Server upgrades have recently been carried out - as a result of these changes, you may have noticed some small alterations to the content that we share on the toolbar marketplace. We are currently investigating the changes and will endeavor to restore items as they previously appeared on your toolbar.

If you have content on your Streaming Internet Radio toolbar, supplied from a third party via the toolbar marketplace, the content provider should be aware of the recent changes. If you require help or assistance due to a third party gadget, please contact the provider directly.

Sorry for any inconvenience.
