Scott Knaster

Wednesday, April 04, 2007 by Dave Winer.

Turns out Scott Knaster, who I've known since the very early days of the Mac, has been working on Google Desktop for the Mac, which just came out today. I tried it on Windows when it came out in 2004, and was really psyched, but it didn't turn out to be as useful as I thought it would because most of my work had migrated to the web. Today, even more so. I have four computers that I use regularly, so there's really very little that's unique about each desktop other than its location (and one of them has Parallels and Windows XP, which I still find amazing). But Scott's one of the best designers I've ever known, and a great guy, so I'll probably give it a try.
