Google Desktop beta review by PC Magazine

Next best things that could happen in terms of Search on your desktop....

Google Desktop beta review by PC Magazine: "Google Desktop beta

If you love Google, Google Desktop will be your new best friend. It indexes local files and e-mails, logs and indexes your AIM chats and surfed Web pages, and can even recover content from deleted or modified documents. It does not, however, provide the detailed field-based search available in Lookout for Outlook.

Indexes local documents, Outlook or Outlook Express e-mail, AIM chats, Web history. Searches using familiar Google syntax. Can recover changed or deleted documents from cache.


Doesn't index PDF content or index inside ZIPs. Can't rebuild index without uninstall/reinstall. Requires Internet Explorer for full function. Can't search on specific data fields."
