"Google Desktop is a desktop search application that gives you easy access to information on your computer and from the web. Desktop makes searching your own email, files, music, photos, and more as easy as searching the web with Google."

Alternatively, click on Applications -> Google Desktop -> Google Desktop to start the application.
