Google Desktop now available for Linux
28 June 2007 in Linux & Random tidbits
Finally the Google tool (my favorite) is available for all main platforms: Windows, Mac and Linux.
You can search your Linux files and applications on Debian 4.0, Fedora Core 6, Ubuntu 6.10, SUSE 10.1 and Red Flag 5.
The big advantage Google Desktop has over built-in search solutions (like the Mac’s Spotlight or Vista Search) is its ability to include Gmail messages in its results, and the use of Google’s advanced search operators, which are nice to learn once and use both on the web and desktop. For more on Google Desktop power using, see how to get more from Google Desktop. GDesktop is a free download, now truly cross-platform.
