I might point you to a few articles written by friends of mine:

Storing the context is always a good idea but not easy.

  abstract = {With increasing storage capacities on current PCs, 
searching theWorld Wide
     Web has ironically become more efficient than searching one's own
     personal computer. The recently introduced desktop search engines
     are a first step towards coping with this problem, but not yet a
     satisfying solution. The reason for that is that desktop search is
     actually quite different from its web counterpart. Documents on the
     desktop are not linked to each other in a way comparable to the web,
     which means that result ranking is poor or even inexistent, because
     algorithms like PageRank cannot be used for desktop search. On the
     other hand, desktop search could potentially profit from a lot of
     implicit and explicit semantic information available in emails, folder
     hierarchies, browser cache contexts and others. This paper investigates
     how to extract and store these activity based context information
     explicitly as RDF metadata and how to use them as well as additional
     background information and ontologies to enhance desktop search.},
