Very Happy & Healthy New Year to All.

If i look back and see my blog, There was not even a single update from the last 1 year. I can say i have been too busy…travelling…bla…bla…bla but the fact is like i have been doing more of reading than writing. Busy with the new roles, responsibilities…etc…etc.

Every new year I am saying this for the past 2 years. Will try to come back and do some blogging at least this Year.

All these days I was quite busy and am a bit late in updating myself with the latest happenings.

Bing.com seems to have been launched for public by microsoft. This looks promising and the search results also seems to be as good as Google. Need to see if it can emerge as a Google competitor.

DocFetcher is an Open Source desktop search application: It allows you to quickly access documents on your computer by
typing keywords. You can think of it as Google for your local document repository.

How is different desktop search applications such as Google Desktop:
- First, it defaults to indexing only what you need, not to indexing the entire harddrive.
- Second, it indexes documents only – pictures, music, videos, etc. are omitted.
