Google Desktop

I have been using Beagle but Im not all that happy with it.
So I thought I would try Google Desktop as I had great luck with it on
Windows.
On this page it talks about getting a security key
www.google.com/linuxrepositories/ubuntu704.html

And here it talks about how to do this with apt-get
http://www.google.com/linuxrepositories/apt.html


I do not understand how to get this key. It says on the first page
to download it but, right clicking and 'save as' gives me a .pub file.
When you click on the link you get this text but nothing downloads.

I tried the apt-get way and get errors:

abc@abc:~$ sudo wget -q -O -
http://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | apt-key add -
Password:
gpg: no writable keyring found: eof
gpg: error reading `-': general error
gpg: import from `-' failed: general error

Try installing it through automatix - I did that and it works fine on my
system.

abc@abc:~$ wget -q -O -
http://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -

This is the only command that worked.
