Google Toolbar Leaves Beta & Adds Quick Search

Yesterday at the SEW Blog I covered the news that Google Desktop 3 Leaves Beta, Gains Quick Search Feature. What I find very interesting about all of this is that there is virtually zero to very little forum discussion on this topic. The only forum thread I found about this was not at WebmasterWorld or Search Engine Watch, like you would think - but at our forum. The thread title in our forum is wrong, it is out of beta, if you would like to discuss, you can visit Search Engine Roundtable Forums. The new quick search feature looks like a cool "widget" that may be helpful for PC users, on a Mac, I just hit the "apple" key and the space bar to bring up spotlight.
