Reddit Updates its Toolbar Feature for The First Time in 4 years

Technology.am (May 30, 2009) — Reddit has released the first major update to its toolbar, version 2.0, in four years. It adds all the expected features — the ability to give a positive or negative vote to a story, see a link’s current point value and leave a comment.

A new feature, called Serendipity, lets users channel surf the site to access random pages that other users have enjoyed. Spurred by the popularity of the flagship “stumble” button on StumbleUpon, Digg added something similar, called Random, to its toolbar last month.
