Well, this seems rather pointless, but Mac users now have the option of installing a new version of Google Desktop that allows you to install gadgets. What is Google Gadgets? Nothing special, really. They’re just mini-apps that you can add to Dashboard to show you things like the weather, photos, and e-mail. Said Gadgets are installed into the Dashboard rather than having a separate sidebar. Sounds totally cool. Not.

Is it me or do Google and Apple seem to be coming out with a LOT collaborations lately?
I know Google Desktop isn’t really a collab, but this does go above and beyond GD for Windows and it DOES make me wonder how big the Apple/Google partnership will grow following Microsoft’s purchase of Facebook.
