Why not just use "locate" and "updatedb" commands ?

Exactly for the reason that Google is more effective than "archie" (those who remember): Many times you know what's in the file, but forgot its name and where you put it.

Not to mention is you want to look for an application that does something. You may have it already and not be aware of it. Now if you google for it in your /usr/doc, odds are that you'll find a good clue.

BTW, I'm now working on convincing my desktop Google to index the entire linux filesystem via the Samba connection. It doesn't happen naturally.
