New Version Of Google Desktop

Everton | Feb 09, 2006 | Comments 0


Google slowly but surely are dominating the services I use on my PC.  Currently I use Gmail, Google Reader and Google Search.  As soon as I can access easily access my MSN contacts I will make the switch to Google Talk.

Now, with the latest version of Google Desktop released yesterday Google have taken over my desktop search.  I didn't like the previous versions as they used too much memory for my liking, but the latest version has some features I can't resist:

- Sidebar's can now be personalised and positioned  anywhere on the the desktop by clicking and dragging.
- information from Sidebar panels can be shard by email, chat or directly from the Sidebar

But here's the biggie for me – now you can Search Across Computers to find content from documents and web history.  This will be great for me as I hate it when I can't find something just because I can't remember which PC I used to find it or store it.
