google

google gives you that cool tool bar navagator for the top of your browser and explorer window...
i was wondering, is it possible to somehow incorporate it into my task bar like the address and ZA?
(not just a shortcut)

You can add it to the tool bar in Netscape. I use Google for my home page. Also you should be able to add it to the quick launch section of the taskbar. Or if you have IE in quick launch just change your home page on IE, then all you will have to do is hit quick launch.

I just added Google to my quick launch bar, just make a shortcut to desktop then drag to quick launch.

In Win XP you can right click on the taskbar and choose Toolbars, New toolbar and add a web address. I think you can do this in Win ME too, but I'm not sure. Try it.

i don't want it to be in the form of a shortcut...
i want to type a search word from the task bar, then hit go. just like you can add an address in the task bar and hit go.

You can, however, make Google your default search engine in IE. Serves the same purpose.

And, the Google toolbar does not have to take up an entire screen width. It can be incorporated into the IE toolbars just like any other. I have mine sharing the same space as the Address Bar (Address Bar/Left - Google/Right Side). Once on the toolbar line you can drag it left/right to space things as you wish.

This may give you what you need...takes up no more screen area than the normal IE toolbars and can type a search without doing anything else.
