Running Google Desktop Gadgets on iGoogle
Desktop, IG October 5th, 2007 - By Haochi
Google today released a new version of Google Desktop, with bug fixes, optimization and a new feature that enables users to access Google Desktop gadgets in iGoogle. This means that you can play musics from your computer, check your battery life/memory usage, run commands, and do many other things on iGoogle if you have the latest version of Google Desktop installed (you might need help with this if you are running Windows Vista though).
A more in-depth review is coming soon, by Yannick Stucki, Googlified’s resident expert of Google Desktop. You know, leave the technical stuff to the experts. :)

Google Desktop 5.5 is problematic … launching Quick Search often crashes and says ‘Google Desktop is not running’ and even after installing v5.5, iGoogle still needs an extra plug-in. Boo …

I have some google desktop installed but don’t really understand it. I have a slideshow running but the slides seem to be random from random files. How do I select the picture files to run or not run?
Thanks,
