Google Desktop 3 Leaves Beta, Gains Quick Search Feature

The Google blog announced last night that Google Desktop is out of beta, finally. In addition, Google has added a feature named quick search box that pops up a search box in the center of your screen when you hit your control button two times in a row. Quick Search “enables you to search the web and your local computer.” If you do not want this feature, you can turn it off in your Google Desktop preferences area.
