Maybe, who knows.
But they have to know, that our project is existing, maybe then they
would help us.
I see a huge potential, the desktop search could be our only search
engine, saves a lot of time and nobody gets the stupid idea to use MSs
desktopsearch (even if I think, that it wont run that good...) or
something like the sidebar planned for Windows Vista (doesn't look like
it will be included in RTM) could be integrated, using google services
like search (using the adsense technology, but instead of showing ads
showing "ordinary" searchresults) or maybe even things like wheather
(don't know if google wheather is existing...) and of course shecking
your googlemail.
But such potential exists for a lot of companies, so I think this is a
topic that will be current for a long time...
Greets,

btw, please stop responding to these very offtopic mails, use my
Industry Support thread instead...
