There are some great search applications out there for Windows (including the new built-in version of Windows Search), but InSight takes a slightly different approach to desktop search. On the surface, it has most of what you'd expect from a more advanced search program: It can search multiple drives on your computer, which is great if you're dual or triple-booting your computer. It also indexes them really quickly, usually in only one or two minutes, and can search through them super fast. You can search files' metadata, use simple filters like a minus sign ("-") to exclude words, and keywords like AND or OR to further refine your search.
What's really cool about InSight, though, is that it provides quick previews for files like images and music. If you're unsure of a file's contents by just its filename, you can hover your mouse over the search results to get a small thumbnail of an image or to have it start playing a song (without opening a separate application). It also has built-in Outlook search, Wikipedia search, and a "Quick Launch" tab that lets you add notes, weblinks, or links to files on your PC for quick access.
It isn't perfect, of course—it doesn't search the contents of your documents, which is a pretty standard feature in modern desktop search (it is, however, in the roadmap). It's still definitely worth a look, though, if only for those in-search previews. Hit the link below to check it out, and if you don't end up liking it, be sure to check out our Hive Five on desktop search applications for alternatives.
InSight Desktop Search is a free download for Windows only.

Fruits like oranges, peaches, and pears are no surprise, since they're roughly the "fist-sized" portion that the serving generally sticks to, but other fruits aren't so easy to pin down, and it's usually the ones that are the most fun to eat. So, just how many grapes make up a "serving" of fruit? Turns out it's 32.
Vegetables can be even harder than fruit, but the guide makes it easy (now, if only eating certain vegetables were as easy). Asparagus lovers will be happy to know that it only takes an average of four spears to make a serving—but broccoli haters will be displeased to know that it takes 16 baby trees to get the same result.
The guide is available as a handy, two-page PDF, so you can post it right up on the fridge. CHOW also recommends you go straight to the CDC's website and use their calculator to find out exactly how many servings of each that you need on a daily basis, and to use the guide as a reference point until you get the hang of it.
