Google have released the beta of their desktop search.
It's a desktop search application that provides full text search over your email, computer files, chats, and the web pages you've viewed.
Haven't had a chance to give it a complete workout yet, it's indexing the files on my machine as I type. Will post an analysis when I have really got it working.
Read more. Check out the screenshots. Read what searchenginewatch has to say about it.
