Hat tip to Long Zheng at i started something for the heads up on a forthcoming add-in for Microsoft Office 2007 called Scout that provides the ability to search for all related commands in an Office app using keyword search.

While I agree that the new Office Ribbon UI is an excellent step forward in usability and discoverability, there's more than a little unfamiliarity to overcome in the early stages of adoption. This add-in should be a great boon to new users of Office 2007 and a handy aid even for those who've overcome the initial learning curve.
I'm looking forward to trying this out when it becomes available.
