Personally i use Sherlock alot, i think its a very good tool. But since Dashboard in Tiger will have all of those features and more, do you think that will be the end of the road for Sherlock? Do you think it'll even be included in Tiger?

It'll be included, but really, Dashboard is a better way for people to know about these cool tools. Most people think Sherlock is just for finding files (which it doesn't even do anymore). Dashboard can just do so much more than Sherlock now.

Plus the widgets look nicer than Sherlock.

Don't really use Sherlock, only the translate pane sometimes smile.gif
PureEdit
I think it will be, its easier and more accessible.

Apple hasn't had a major update of Sherlock since Jaguar. And plus there's no update of Sherlock in Tiger. Makes sense that Dashboard is the end of Sherlock. I think its easier to developers to do things with Dashboard so the idea will be big unlike Sherlock.
