Google Quick Search Box
Google has begun seeding a developer preview of Quick Search Box for the Mac. The utlility is said to be related to the Google Mobile App for the iPhone, but more complex. Users can for instance search for information on their own computer as well as the web, and access experimental functions that should eventually propagate elsewhere.
Some of these include actions, contextual search and extensibility, according to Google. The company is currently hosting the software on the Google Code website, where it is a free, 2.93MB download. Feedback from testers is asked for.
