Google just enhanced their toolbar with a pop up
blocker with the following:

* Pop up Blocker: Make surfing the web easier by
stopping annoying popups
* AutoFill: Automatically fill in a form with the
click of a button
* BlogThis: Create a weblog post pointing to the page
you are visiting *WOW*

BlogThis is used to automatically upload links to your
Blogger page (if you use blogger) so you can post
simply in a small pop up window. This is an excellent
blogging tool and a fabulaous way for Google to
promote their new Blogger acquisition!

And no.... Google's Pop up blocker does not block the
BlogThis pop up! :)

Personally, I think this will help to expand the Pop
Up Opt-In community, those who choose not to block pop
ups. What do you think?
