What would the world in general and the blogosphere in particular be without random statistics? Surely we would cease to exist. So let me help by providing a quick update on toolbar statistics. Since its launch on October 3 the toolbar has been downloaded 32 times. According to the reporting function on average 18-20 people use it on a daily basis to perform 103 operations. You may say those numbers are small and insignificant. I say they confirm that the toolbar has become the productivity tool of choice for a select elite of Canadian PR professionals. 
Here is the list of Canadian PR bloggers that are currently included in the toolbar for both the blog directory and the news ticker.
Please welcome Michael “Back-In-the-PR-Game” O’Connor Clarke (Congrats, Michael and Thornley Fallis!) and Maggie K. Fox of socialmediagroup.ca as the newest additions. If you would like to see anybody else added, please leave me a comment or send me an email.

I am also happy to add recommendations in the other sections of the toolbar, for example journalist blogs, marketing blogs, PR events, associations or podcasts.

Hi Martin, thanks for including me – I’m in great company, an honour!
Awww… Maggie stole my line
Thanks indeed, Martin. I’ll confess that I downloaded the toolbar a week or so ago, and I get a lot of value from it. Excellent stuff. I haven’t blogged about it yet (bad, bad lurker). I’ll rectify that.
Any idea if it’s possible to implement Mozilla right-click functionality for the handy blog links? It would be nice to be able to “open in a new tab”, for example. But that’s a very minor wrinkle in an utterly wonderful bit of coding. Overall, I love it.
I’ve had the toolbar installed since you created it and have been widely recommending it. Any new functionality you’re looking at adding? Anything more you’re learing from the German version?
Thanks for the feedback, Michael and Hugh! Michael, I have forwarded your question/suggestion about the right click functionality to the Conduit support team. Because the toolbar creator is a free web services by Conduit, the ways to change functionality for me are limited. But I will let you know what they come back with. I agree that it would be great to use the tabs.
Hugh, there are a couple other options that we could add but I haven’t really seen the usefulness yet. For example, it is possible to add RSS feeds, chat and a message box. I think everybody is already using RSS feeds as part of the browser or in a separate reader. And I don’t think chat is necessary. However, there is an option to add other custom components which, frankly, I haven’t had the time to really look at yet. But it is something I am planning to do in the next couple months. So far I haven’t seen anything that stood out. Will keep you posted.
Thanks for mentioning me . . . but I would prefer if my name was in the right order . . . Boyd Neil
Sorry about that Boyd. I have corrected it in the toolbar and the posting. It may take a little bit of time until the server-side change on the toolbar happens but the correct version will show up soon.

I’ve added it and I like it. Thanks for including me.
I dig the toolbar. Thanks for getting it up and running.
Great job. Many thanks for including me.
Martin,
Congrats on your altruistic and helpful tool. Sorry I didn’t get around to chatting with you at Throng the other night…next time. Not too sure if I’m the marketing luddite among the PR luminaries here but definitely have some affinity with people on your toolbar – I may just have to download it. Cheers. Sean Moffitt
Hi Sean, it was great meeting you, too. I only listed the PR bloggers above but you’ve actually been included in the blog directory on the toolbar under Marketing since the start. I keep reading your blog, so I wanted it up there.
