Switching back to Google Desktop Search

Yeah, well that was fun while it lasted.  I’m back to using Google Desktop.

What I liked about the indexing flexibility of Locate32 is now out the window.  The path to get to what I need to get to is just not easy enough.  I’m used to using Launchy.  I can’t start Locate32 with Launchy and search for a Word Document that contains the phrase “whee” without clicking.

I also thought Xobni might be nice for searching Outlook e-mail.  It’s fine, but it’s, I don’t know….too much.  The contact analytics is cool, but I don’t need it.  I know who I e-mail the most, etc.
