These resources are accessed via many interfaces, including menus,location bars, icons, file browsers, and shortcut keys. We plan to consolidate these interfaces by creating an application that indexes items found in the user's desktop environment (e.g. documents, contacts, applications, multimedia) and lets the user search for these items, and perform common actions on these items (e.g. open, run, email, play). Our goal is to optimize our search using, among other techniques, information about items considered as members of type ``ontologies'' and as individual entities. Of special note, our project will be free and open source, which means that all specifications, source code, documentation, and other project resources will be publicly available on the Internet for anyone to scrutinize at any stage in our development process. We will publicize our project and encourage others to participate by contributing bug reports, code, documentation, etc.
