Jason Snell places spotlight on . . . er, Spotlight

Over at his current Macworld editorial blog post, Jason Snell takes a long hard gander at Spotlight after using it for a good solid week. He notes that it blows any previous Apple search tool out of the water, but also writes that "oddly enough, Spotlight is also the Tiger feature that I feel the most ambivalent about. As cool as Spotlight is, its still a first-generation technology thats got a bunch of quirks, some mildly annoying and some absolutely maddening." His take is interesting and right on the money. I agree with the entire thing.

Also, I forgot entirely about that whole smart folders functionality. That's the coolest. I have to go play with that right now.
