It take a lot to me to find what I was used to find in few seconds by Google Desktop. I do not know WHO in your company said that Goggle Desktop is no more necessary because native search engines in operating systems are mature, but he is totally crazy!Dario de Judicibushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06680443366345782884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-37644303251455799862012-11-04T03:10:25.412-08:002012-11-04T03:10:25.412-08:00Agreed, Psyck.

Despiter all their protestations to the contrary, business users deal with old fashioned local data and MSft's horrible search capabilities. Frankly MSft may have greatly improved their search but I would never know because I quit using it the second I could use Google Desktop. I wish Google nothing but the worst. The best search engine in the world and they're ashamed of their dominance in search because it isn't "Facebooky" enough.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-63259517316364456172012-06-13T09:05:52.553-07:002012-06-13T09:05:52.553-07:00This works...
