Google Desktop Beta

Google just came out with a new desktop. I LOVE it! Now all of my favorite things are within a click away--photos, music, websites, email, you name it! Everything I own is searchable. I have to learn how to customize it even more. I feel like I'm surrounded by my favorite stuff! Finally, the computer is becoming a personal space. Now my desktop matches my virtual identity.
