Microsoft isn't talking publicly yet about "Scout," an Office 2007 search add-in developed by Microsoft that Istartedsomething blogger Long Zheng mentions (and posts a screen shot of) in a post today.
But the Redmondians should be showing off this interesting-looking search appendage — especially if the company wants to silence critics who say the Office 2007 Ribbon user interface (now apparently known as "Fluent") makes finding commands tougher, not easier.
Zheng compares Scout to Blacktree's Quicksilver for Mac OS X, but says Quicksilver is more powerful.
