For a while there it seemed as though Google was neglecting mac users by releasing most of the applications on windows platform and very few applications for mac. Well it seems as though Google is redeeming itself by attempting to catch up.
Today i installed Google Desktop for Mac and I am pleased in the way it’s working. Although all of Google applications for windows were sort of working like the Mac OS, on windows they never really worked as intended [what a surprise]. I had Google Desktop on my windows laptop but after a short while i had to uninstall it as windows was not working well with the “global search” feature.
Mac OS already has a very nice Spotlight feature and as Google Desktop was being installed I thought that it might be a little redundant to have both things sucking up my computers processing power doing exactly same thing. But now after some time using Google Desktop for Mac i can see that these two features while resembling each other in many ways are a nice supplement for one another. Spotlight does a fantastic job in finding stuff on the computer itself while Google Desktop does the same for the web stuff, emails and anything also i do on the internet.

Because for me using a computer means using google, I am very happy with this application.
I don’t really have time or patience to write a full-fledged review of this program and i’m sure there will be plenty of people doing that anyway. But one thing i would say is if you have a Mac you should consider installing this application, it will simplify your life, i promise.
