Google has come up with a new social bar that allows users to keep all their friend connection gadgets in one place. The friend connect social bar is a new tool bar that goes across the top of your website. The bar has a comments section, a list of site members and a site wide connectivity feed. If you look on the main Google site you’ll be able to download a video that demonstrates how to install the social bar.

Google’s video gives you a taste of the social bar in action along with installation instructions. Google announced the launch of the social bar on its new social web blog, which tells people, “News and updates about Google products that are helping to make the web more social” For some reason, Google sees it as their mission to help internet users to socialise. Whether this will be a success remains to be seen, some sceptics think that Google should leave the social side alone and get on with what it knows best about search. It would seem that Google’s social bar is seen as just another step in the process of trying to perfect their search product.
