Google Launches Desktop Search

Google Labs continue to pump out useful tools for webmasters, this time launching the Google DeskBar, a free search application that enables PC users to conduct Google searches at any time from any application.

Once downloaded, the Google Deskbar appears as a search box in the Windows taskbar at the bottom right of most Windows-based PCs. Now you don't need to open your browser to search the net. Just enter keywords directly into the search box and your results are automatically displayed in a separate window. The beauty of the Deskbar is the ability to conduct a search from any application, such as email or a word processing package, without having to launch a separate program.

You can access all your favorite Google tools direct from Deskbar, as well as stock quotes and other web resources.

Forward and back arrows in the Deskbar window let you click through results pages quickly, or you can launch your browser from the program to view results in full screen. You can also customize Deskbar links using the options menu, including choosing which regional Google domain to search by default.
