ROBERT HESS: Making more of a platform then, whereas like OLE structured storage wasn't really a platform; it was more like a technology a people could use. QUENTIN CLARK: Yeah. The other sort of angle when you look at this is, when you start to have schemas, what else can you get out of that? Suddenly I can ask the system questions like, Is there a way for me to take a document and a contact and create an authoring relationship between these, because now I have all this strong schematized notions of what those things are? Can I start to look at things through relationships, whether they're explicit things - why are two things together, whether or not they're query-based things, like find me all the pieces of mail from Robert in the past week with PowerPoints in them, or with PowerPoints that are about WinFS in them. You start to be able to answer those question because of that schema, and that raises the level of power that developers now have at their disposal quite a bit.
Searching Windows: Indexing the contents of your PC helps you get faster results when you're searching it for files and other things. Windows uses indexing by default. All data gathered from indexing is stored locally on your PC. None of it is sent to any other computer or to Microsoft.
Exposing Data to Search: Not through Index Server, [which is] optional in 'Longhorn' [and] will not exist in future versions [of Windows]
