Searching, cleaning and star gazing

Margaret emailed and wants to know about desktop search. This is a relatively new tool that comes to us from the folks at Google that enables one to search their PC with the Google search engine. Why? It's quicker. Is it used at the beach house? Not yet. Security issues are always mentioned when talking about desktop search and this is a "test" version. Since Google took the lead and this has been downloaded by the masses now the competitors want in on the deal. Read more about it at PCWorld. Hope this helps, Margaret from Mississippi.

Now I must go vacuum before starting my rounds. Have a safe day.

Edit: Don't forget the Geminid Meteor Shower. Best viewing for this area is around 1-2am, but it can be seen all night. Look above and to the left of Orion. Tonight and tomorrow night are peak viewing times. Find me in the hammock - with a warm beverage.
