Google Releases New Search Enhancement Tools

Google has set to improve and enhance its search experience and released several new technologies: Google Desktop 4, Google Co-op and Google Notebook. The new services from Google allow users to share more information with others and enjoy better and more accurate search results. Google also issued its Google Trends. The new tools allow users to explore billions of searches conducted on Google.

"Google Co-op and the other new services announced today combine the power of Google`s technology with the context, knowledge, and unique expertise of individuals," said Jonathan Rosenberg, senior vice president, Product Management, Google Inc. "As a result, users can find the information they are looking for ? no matter how specialized or specific ? faster than ever."

Google`s main addition is the Google Desktop 4, which offers another way for users to improve their search experience, by personalizing their desktops with the introduction of Google Gadgets. These gadgets are mini-applications that reside on users` desktops and deliver a variety of personalized information such as games, media players, weather and news. Google Desktop can also recommend new gadgets and can automatically create a personalized homepage for users based on the subjects they frequently search and access.
