New Google Toolbar

If anyone is using the new Google toolbar, here is a custom button we have made that may be useful.

Nominet WHOIS lookup
Add

Type a .co.uk domain name in the Google search box and click this button, it will WHOIS on the Nominet server. Supports .co.uk only (I can send source code out if anyone can improve it?) and enter the domain as acorndomains not acorndomains.co.uk

Acorn Domains "New Posts" custom button.

Add

This will show you all new posts on the forum since your last visit.
Look for the "AD" icon.

Alternatively, we still have our own Toolbar here.

We provide a standard Firefox plugin for WHOIS searches. This blog article has details
