Google Launches Desktop Search Tool

I had picked up from various sources that this tool was coming and now it is here.

This is a downloadable application that you install on your PC. It runs in a browser window and first it indexes your computer. From the browser window you are able to tell it what you want to include.

Once it is complete it allows you to search (just like goooood ooooold gooooogle on the net, only this time it gives you the option of your desktop (local PC) or website.

I'll let you know how it goes once its finished indexing. Initial results look good though.
