A Cool Tool for Google Fiends

Do you find yourself using many (if not all) of Google's great tools during the day? What if you could access all of them in one place? That's the goal of GMDesk, an Adobe Air product that breaks all of the great Google tools out of your browser and puts them in a standalone application (If you don't have the Adobe Air platform on your computer, you'll have to download it first). Once you download the free application, you can toggle between the various Google services: Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Docs, Google Maps, Google Reader, and Picasa Web Albums. GMDesk works pretty well -- one criticism I have is that you cannot print in most of the applications, like you can from a browser. That may be a dealbreaker for some of you. But if it's not, give this tool a try -- it's pretty nifty.
