Yahoo! Partners with X1 for Desktop Search
今天看到新闻Yahoo! Partners with X1 for Desktop Search，摘录一段： Google already released a beta of its desktop search offering, and Microsoft's MSN is working on a desktop search tool, too. With the X1 tool as a foundation, Yahoo!'s product will be more full-featured than Google's is currently, but it will also consume more system resources such as disk space and RAM.
听说X1的东西就是比较慢，占用资源严重，看来yahoo是要秉承这个缺点了。另外，前阵子有新闻：Mamma Search is Buying Copernic，要知道Copernic是一个专门做搜索客户端工具的软件公司，并于9月份发布了Desktop Search。看来国外搜索引擎正在google的带领下，进入Desktop Search的争抢占领市场阶段。国内的类似战斗，也会很快打响的！

做web search做习惯了，把索引都建立在内存里，搜索速度是快了，对客户本身来讲未必是一件好事。

同意！不过，先在硬件越来越便宜，电脑配置也越来越高，是否也可忽略这个问题？
