New Google Toolbar’s Editing Capabilities
There seems to be a bit of controversy bubbling up about the new feature of the Google toolbar that allows it to edit any page on the web. Zeldman fans the flames with this:
To the delight of gadget freaks and the consternation of some web designers and thinkers, the new Autolink feature in Google’s latest toolbar sticks links on your site that you didn’t put there.
For instance, if your company’s site includes a street address, a link to Google’s map service will magically sprout from your page when users click the Autolink button. Likewise, a book’s ISBN number will trigger a link to an Amazon page selling that book. The BBC and CNET cite additional examples.
The problem is, they’re wrong. No client side tool can change the server version of a web site without permission (unless the server is being hacked of course). What this is doing is allowing users of the Google toolbar to edit, add links, make notes, whatever, on their own local version of the page they are viewing.
Much ado about nothing. In fact, a pretty slick tool if you ask me.
UPDATE: Mentalized.net agrees with me. And as a commenter on WizbangBlog noted, it’s no different than letting a user scribble in the margins or highlight text in their own copy of a book. It doesn’t change what anyone else sees. Aaron Hockley points to SearchEngineWatch who links to Threadwatch (dizzy yet?) for web publishers to opt out if you’re still not convinced.
UPDATE: Speaking of Google… speculation is growing about the Google OS. They have hired Microsoft Operating System architect, Mark Lucovsky. Via Coops Corner.

Google Autolink Controversy
Is Google stiring up the hornets nest? The Autolink feature in their latest toolbar would sugest so. The feature modifies pages users are visiting and places linksin those pages without the authors permission.
Trackback by JRB Technology — March 3, 2005 @ 3:44 pm
Google is not stirring up the hornets nest. Uninformed ranters with nothing better to do are stirring up the hornets nest. The “changing a web page without the author’s permission” argument is tenuous at best.
First, addresses, tracking numbers, VIN numbers and ISBN numbers cannot be copyrighted, therefore they are not protected content. Second, AutoLink is a user directed feature - this is not a Google automagically changes the web page on the fly feature. The user first has to enable AutoLink and then they have to click on the AutoLink button to create links - and in some cases links are not created on the web page but rather in a drop down menu. Third, and most importantly in this whole “protecting content” debate is the fact that every modern browser has options to override the fonts, colors and stylesheets used by a web page.
I agree: much ado about nothing.
