sherlockAre you a Mac user? When was the last time you launched Sherlock, I’m not sure if I’ve EVER intentionally launched Sherlock, but today I misclicked and Bam! — Knee deep in crap UI design and redundant functionality.

I personally would have though Apple would have dumped Sherlock when they started pushing Dashboard Widgets, because this is clearly one app that bypassed both the publicity and UI departments in Cupertino. Oh how the mighty have fallen A quick peek on my bookshelf confirms my suspicion that sherlock WAS the big news in the release of System 9.5.

Intrestingly A quick visit to www.apple.com/sherlock pushes you to apple.com/macosx/jaguar/sherlock.html which is still basically a 404 page, but it is intresting that it tosses a reference to Jaguar in there.
