Google says goodbye to beta with Desktop Search 1.0


7 March 2005 18:01 GMT / By Stuart Miles

Google has introduced a full version of its desktop-search software for PC users with a developer's kit and support for the Firefox and Netscape browsers.

New editions to the full version include the ability to search for music and video files, full PDFs and web surfing history in three web browsers.

The program has kept the ability to search Microsoft Office documents, images, e-mail and Internet Explorer Web pages.

It also includes a software developers kit, or SDK, so that outsiders can build new search plug-ins.
