Google Sidebar to Launch Monday

UPDATE: I just saw this link to Sidebar at Google’s site. Thanks Fred!

The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Google will release a new product tomorrow called “Sidebar”.

As far as I can tell the product is not available at Google yet (as of 10:00 PM PST on Sunday). The WSJ reports that Sidebar will be available on Monday and will provide information including email, weather, stocks, and desktop search alongside whatever content users are viewing.

It appears that Sidebar will self-customize based on user activities and will also include a text editor that allows users to write and store text files.

    The Google Sidebar is certainly cool (as is Konfabulator, Desktop Sidebar, Apple Dashboard, and, eventually, the Vista Sidebar). However, it is only part of the answer to having a fully integrated “personal intelligence agent” at your disposal. If you want to get a glimpse at the next two or three steps beyond what Google and the like are doing, check out my Mentations product at http://www.mentations.com. While still an early beta, I hope the intent is clear as to the direction we are taking it! BTW, any constructive criticism is welcome.
