Strigi - Operating Systems and Desktops

Operating Systems and Desktops

KDE Plasma Workspaces require Strigi as core component of the new semantic desktop technologies. Strigi and NEPOMUK are working together to help create a semantic desktop search. NEPOMUK will allow the user to add metadata, which Strigi will be able to index for a more precise search. Developers are also considering adding Sonnet support to Strigi to allow users to search for documents written in a specific language.

GNOME has an optional applet to search for files using Strigi, named Deskbar. Deskbar is included in the GNOME desktop of Ubuntu 8.10, for example.

Famous quotes containing the words operating and/or systems:

    “I love meetings with suits. I live for meetings with suits. I love them because I know they had a really boring week and I walk in there with my orange velvet leggings and drop popcorn in my cleavage and then fish it out and eat it. I like that. I know I’m entertaining them and I know that they know. Obviously, the best meetings are with suits that are intelligent, because then things are operating on a whole other level.”
    —Madonna [Madonna Louise Ciccione] (b. 1959)

    “Before anything else, we need a new age of Enlightenment. Our present political systems must relinquish their claims on truth, justice and freedom and have to replace them with the search for truth, justice, freedom and reason.”
    —Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
