Google Toolbar is Impressive and Scary

So I had it with the lack of spellcheck on this blog and for that matter may web forms (comments I blogs specifically) that don't have spellcheck....so I finally downloaded the Google Toolbar. It is great. The spellchecker and Bookmarks are the two primary features I use. The spellchecker will review any form on any web page that allows user entry. It is fantastic.  The scary part is that there is a personalized search feature that while I could see this being really helpful e.g. how many times does a Google search for "TYC" need to give me Texas Youth Commission before it figures out I am interested in TYC's stock price? Google is pretty upfront about the fact that they will need to capture your web usage statistics in order to personalize your experience. I opted out of this feature.
