352103 - Installed Microsoft search feature.  Seems to have same limitations
352104 - as the Windows XP search technology.

352501 - Reuters published announcement that Microsoft has released a new
352502 - technology that provides flexible searching to find information on a
352503 - local computer similar to Google on the Internet. ref OF 1 0001
352505 -  ..
352506 - This seems to follow up notice on 021108 that Microsoft launched a new
352507 - project to make finding information on a computer fast and easy.

352510 -    [On 070126 Eric Freeman who worked with Gelertner on Lifestreams
352511 -    reports on efforts to improve "search" as the holy grail of
352512 -    finding things on computers. ref SDS 5 B35L
352514 -  ..
352515 - There is a website to download the new feature...

352520 - This new improvement from Microsoft may solve the problem using
352521 - Windows XP search technology reported on 050301. ref SDS 3 F05I
352523 -  ..
352524 - Downloaded and installed the software.
352526 -  ..
352527 - It is another tool bar intrusion.  There seemed to be some choices for
352528 - avoiding this clutter, but not sure yet if this worked.  After trying
352529 - the program, the tool bar symbol can be closed, but if the search tool
352530 - is called from the program Start menu, Microsoft installs another
352531 - symbol on the tool bar.
352533 -  ..
352534 - The Microsoft system indexes the local computer, similar to Google
352535 - indexing the Internet.

352546 - This indexed about 100K items.
352548 -  ..
352549 - Indexing seems very slow; took about 30 minutes.

352551 -            [On 070625 Morris indexed his computer - took over 6 hours.
352552 -            ref SDS 6 IE8K
352554 -  ..
352555 - Considered indexing email, but this is redundant with organizing
352556 - files on the f: drive.
352558 -  ..
352559 - Tried the search for "business metrics" that failed on 050301.
352560 - ref SDS 3 7H6N
352562 -  ..
352563 - Search process executed very fast, similar to getting reports on the
352564 - Internet.
352566 -  ..
352567 - Search failed.
352569 -  ..
352570 - Tried "cognitive overhead" and search failed again.
352572 -  ..
352573 - The search turns up a lot of files with a .doc extension, which was
352574 - not part of the search specification that was targeted to SDS records
352575 - on the d: drive, and to files on the f: drive.
352577 -  ..
352578 - Biggest problem is search reports commingles and scrambles resutls;
352579 - there is no coherent organization to anything that accomplishes SDS
352580 - support for context management to show chronology of cause and effect
352581 - on related activity.  Searching remains an important component of
352582 - Knowledge Management, as a fall back when something is missed with
352583 - the Subject Index.

352595 -        [On 071212 SDS Subject Index support for Context Management
352596 -        seems overwhelming, shocking, beyond reach, and so unnecessary
352597 -        overkill. ref SDS 7 ZJ3H
352599 -  ..
352600 - On 050303 Morris explained that cygwin runs Linux commands on Windows,
352601 - and there is a generic file find utility he uses on his Windows XP
352602 - computers.  The record on 050303 shows that cygwin is workable, and is
352603 - a little faster than the Norton DOS search utility from the 1980s.
