 The bandwagon is rolling rolling rolling along: MSN kicked a new toolbar suite out the door that integrates desktop search – cool stuff. Check it out.
I like the display-results-as-you-type thing, similar to X1. Google needs this.
“MSN Toolbar Suite features three different toolbars to help you search the Web and your computer from Microsoft Internet Explorer or Windows Explorer, the Windows taskbar, and Microsoft Outlook.”
Update: Scott has a look under the hood and compares the MSN desktop search to the Google desktop search, as well.
