What is ToolButton?  It fits neatly onto your desktop as a Deskbar. A Deskbar “docks” on the top or bottom of your desktop (or can float too!) and comes with a nifty option to auto-hide. A Deskbar is a horizontal row of selectable image "buttons" that are pre-defined by the web sites that provide them. These buttons are your direct link to the information, content and news on the web site.

A Content Pipeline  Get information over the Internet with the power of ToolButton:
  • Use the built-in search bar to send searches to any search engine.
  • Read headlines and other RSS content streamed automatically to your desktop.
  • Receive newsletters and important messages from your favorite web sites via ToolButton Alerts.
  • Use a web site’s pre-configured button to navigate directly to the important areas of the site.
  • It’s free – no cost, no spyware, no surprise pop-up advertisements, no up sell to a “pro” version.


Reduce Spam!  No need to have content delivered by email. Spam flourishes because a sender does not have to have your permission to send you a message. ToolButton provides Alerts which are “e-mail like” messages that can be sent to you from web sites that have your permission. There is no need for you to give your email address to web sites that are “ToolButton enabled”.
