WebDrive Enhances Google's Desktop Search

WebDrive Enables Combined Search Results From Desktop and Web Servers

South River Technologies (SRT), the pioneers of Internet Drive Mapping, announced today that WebDrive has been certified to work with Google's Desktop Search. WebDrive is a desktop client that connects a Windows drive letter to a web server. Users can save files directly to their web servers from within applications that they already use, and can edit server files in place, without the additional download step.

Google's Desktop Search currently allows users to search for files on their desktop and their local network drives. The addition of WebDrive extends this function by giving users the ability to index and search remote web servers, and to execute a single search that will return results from both the remote server and the local desktop.

"WebDrive's function has been to integrate remote files into the Windows desktop, enabling access, editing and storing of files to be as easy with remote files as it is with local files," says Tracy Welsh, Vice President of Business Development for South River Technologies. "Extending desktop search applications to web servers is a further benefit of this technology."
