In addition to Dashboard, Tiger delivers more than 200 other new features and innovations including Spotlight, a revolutionary desktop search technology that lets users instantly find anything stored on their Mac, including documents, emails, contacts and images; and Automator, a new workflow application that lets users easily automate repetitive tasks without complex programming. Users simply select from a library of customizable actions, then drag and drop them to create an automated workflow that can be saved and even shared with friends and colleagues.
