The power of Google's search technology isn't just for scouring the web.  With Google Desktop you can apply the same degree of search that Google offers on the web to your very own computer.

The Official Google Blog announced today that Google Desktop has been updated to version 4.5.  Sporting a new transparent look, Google Desktop 4.5 also boasts compatibility with the newest versions of a lot of popular software.  The Google Desktop Blog has more information (including a screenshot).

Speedy desktop search allows you to find things fast, and thus, save time.  I love Google Desktop.  I can find anything on my computer in a matter of seconds.  And by saving time on the desktop, I have more time to devote to online tasks… like… oh I don't know… say… internet marketing?
