Google Desktop 2 Beta is out! And it’s totally mindblowing.
I was expecting a little bar kinda thing on my desktop. But I got a sidebar.
This thing is awesome. Here’s a snapshot:

If you have downloaded Google Talk, then you will enjoy Google Talk inside the Sidebar.
I’m not sure if it displays it if you haven’t downloaded Google Talk yet, though.

It’s also complete with weather information, Built-In RSS Aggregator, a stock aggregator, a nice scratchpad where you can type in stuff that it will save, Web Clips, and a Google Gmail notifier.

You can, of course, search. On the bottom is the search thing, and then it will go ahead and search.

Developers can now rejoice from the Desktop SDK, a file that will allow you to create plug-ins for the Google Sidebar. Good move, now developers can make this Google Desktop Sidebar huge!

This is a good program. I highly suggest downloading it.
