How we lived before the Spotlight

With all the craze over the upcoming in OSX Tiger Spotlight search technology, why not to mention the products what have offered similar features in the past?

  • Maxtivity XTend
    an innovative product from year 2003 what seems to have cancelled for now. Fortunately there's a Wayback Machine what have stored the product homepage and more importantly – the XTend User guide (DOC) what gives a good overview over the XTend features and also provides loads of screenshots.
  • Gnome Storage

Last but not least: here's the preview of Microsoft Longhorn's task- and findability-centered user interface.
