Google says it has fixed a flaw that could have allowed hackers to search the contents of PCs running the company#8217;s desktop search tool. According to a statement issued Monday by the Web search company, it has rolled out a fix for the vulnerability. The flaw in the tool was discovered in late November by a Rice University computer scientist and two of his students.

Google To Launch Desktop Search Tool


Google To Launch Desktop Search Tool 05/19/2004 02:57 AM
I assume this will surprise all of about three or four people who haven't been paying attention, but Google is preparing to laun ch a desktop search tool that will let you search through your own hard drive (in exchange, I assume, for contextual ads). The press will make a big deal about this and how it's a way for them to challenge Microsoft's Longhorn offering, which will have greatly improved local search. I'm not sure it's that interesting. Longhorn is so far off that it's really not worth speculating whether or not this product actually competes with it or not. The more interesting question is, if this local search tool involves contextual ads, will the privacy folks start complaining again that Google is now snooping through your hard drive?

Desktop search engines are sprouting like weeds. Google's showed up in October, then Microsoft's in December, and now Yahoo's this month.

...

For lots of people I know, any one of these choices will produce a life-changing productivity boost. For me, though, that's no longer true. The Gmail experiment has become a lifestyle choice. I still maintain a local Outlook mail store, and it's indexed several ways, but I rarely need to search it. Similarly, most of the documents I create -- InfoWorld stories, Weblog postings -- are pushed to the cloud and are searchable there.

Few of you can or should live in the network cloud to the extent that I do. But if you refocus on the corporate intranet, cloud-based storage has compelling advantages. The first and most obvious one is the ability to access your stuff anywhere, anytime, from any client. A subtler point is that documents in the cloud are documents that other people can help you tag and find.

The gating factor for desktop search is metadata. Finding documents based on words they contain is a huge benefit, something we should all have been able to take for granted years ago. But the future isn't faster or prettier full-text search; it's more context and better relevance. And your personal hard drive isn't the garden where these flowers will grow.

Google's PageRank showed us that relevance is a collective judgment. Services such as del.icio.us, Flickr, and Furl are likewise showing us that metadata tagging wants to be a group effort. One of the ironies of desktop search may prove to be that, by the time it went mainstream, the personal hard drive was about to become an endangered species. [Full story at InfoWorld.com]
