desktop search war

Yahoo is going to launch a desktop search tool, I'm waiting for it, as it will be based on X1 technology, and I heared a lot of good feedback about X1 search.

Any way, the desktop search is like to be a war for the next year, and according to searchengine watch Here's the timeline for the releases of desktop search tools:


October 14: Google Desktop released
December 15: Ask Jeeves desktop search due for release
December 31: MSN desktop search due for release by this date or earlier
January 31: Yahoo desktop search due for release by this date or earlier
Sometime In 2005: AOL's combined browser and desktop search should be out at some point
