Google Desktop Search Released - Full Story

How do you like it, Todd?

I think that one of the biggest flaws Windows has is the speed in searching the hard drive for documents.
I can search MSN for a document within billions of documents on the web and have it in front of me in a matter of microseconds, but when it comes to searching my very own hard drive for a specific file, or email, say in Outlook, it takes what seems to be an eternity.
Now thats solved with this nifty little software Google is giving away.
If I were Bill Gates today, I would be very, very afraid of the beast named Google.

I agree, MH. 5 minutes of testing, and its already pretty damn cool.

Dedicated-Resources.com. You have a nice site, Todd.

It's cool!
Seems to kick into gear every now and then and build its index.
I feel like I took a piece of the googleplex home with me yesterday!

I'll start saving more information to my hdd now that I can access it as fast as lightning. This will revolutionize the use of the CPU, and push the standard of "wow me" so much further.
The google search appliance is a - I dunno - what - $10,000 piece of machinery?

Now I have my own! And even better than that, it was free!
I can't wait to see whats in store for v2.

I can see google building the entire world as their datacenter with this little app.
Just wait and see.
Be afraid Billy boy, be very afraid of this man.
