How I use Google Desktop?
1. Have Computer in all rooms of House.
2. Have Podcasts across several computers.
3. Downloads 1/07/05 in Bed Computer
4. Downloaded 1/o8/05 in Kitchen Computer
5. Downloaded 1/09/05 in Living Room PC
Google Desktop indexes all my computers.
Google GDSuite takes the GDS index and allows me to do boolean on it.
It's like Apple's Spotlight across a network.
Cons: Memory Hog. Indexing is not instantaneous.
(My system is an AMD64 3000+ with 1 gig of ram and an x800xl. It's not top of the line but it's pretty damn good. Watching a vidcast on Itunes while doing a GDS search makes the CPU choke. I think i also have Azureus on. And a movie running on BSplayer. Still, GDS and Itunes and Azureus are the big culprits.)
