Google Releases DeskBar For Faster Searches
The Google Deskbar a neat new toy from Google, allows you to run searches and browse from the desktop instead of a browser in Windows. It appears to be using some IE components, but the memory usage is less than my running IE installation. I wonder if it is lack of support for plugins like Flash that makes it smaller; for example Task Manager on Windows 2000 reported 7,464Kb memory used for a DeskBar search vs. 21,904Kb for IE and the same search. The real question should be, do they even need IE?
Google Deskbar enables you to search with Google from any application without lifting your fingers from the keyboard. Installs easily in your Windows taskbar.
