Adobe, Yahoo! partnership


Adobe and Yahoo! today designed to integrate Adobe and Yahoo! services, significantly increase the reach of Yahoo! Search and expand the online utility of Adobe Reader. This week Adobe will introduce a co-branded Yahoo! Toolbar that will provide users with access to Yahoo! products including AntiSpy, Pop-Up Blocker and Yahoo! Search, as well as Adobe products such as Create Adobe PDF Online, a web-based service for creating documents in PDF. The co-branded toolbar will continue to evolve over time, adding functionality such as the ability to quickly and easily convert web-based content into Adobe PDF files. In addition, a future release of Adobe Reader will feature Yahoo! Search as the default Internet search.

    scary

    What's the point? I cringe when I see (Windows) users filling up their browsers with ugly toolbars.

    toolbars

    IE for Windows users love their toolbars. They must, as EVERYONE and their sister has one out. They're the on-line music stores of the IE world.

    toolbar references

    What bugs me is that the announcement just says "a Toolbar", with no mention at all of which operating systems or which browsers the toolbar works with. Even if it worked with all operating systems and all browsers (fat chance), it should say so. To refer to something that is really an accessory to a few applications on a limited number of operating systems as simply "a Toolbar" marginalizes everything it doesn't work with. I don't really care whether it works with Safari or not, since I prefer my workspace lean anyway. I just don't like announcements that seem to assume Microsoft is so universal it need not even be mentioned.
