Google Desktop 5 - Improved Sidebar & Gadgets

[fazaal24]

There's a new version of Google Desktop in town: Google Desktop 5.0. This time, the software gets more serious, adds security features, makes it easier to access the search results and adopts dark colors.

The sidebar has a completely new look and feel. It samples the color of your wallpaper and fades in the sampled color so that it fits seamlessly onto your desktop. Some of our gadgets have been redesigned so that they are easy to tell apart, easy to read, and easy on the eyes. More differentiated gadgets allow for faster scanning of information through the sidebar. And we've created a new dialog for adding gadgets so it's easier and faster than ever to find the right gadgets for you.

Improved! Google Gadgets

Nice.

Did you notice how they have copied the search box of Vista in theier application? :D (well, Microsoft copied it from Apple :lol:)

But is it better than Vista's Side Bar? I don't think so :rolleyes:
