Bundled with Mac OS 8.5 - 10.4, the Sherlock search tool became less and less useful as time went by. Apple claimed that Sherlock was "dramatically better than standard web browsers at retrieving and displaying some of the most practical and useful information available on the internet" without ever explaining why. The US-centric content was pretty much useless, and so it always remained a curiosity. That it even made it to OS X was a surprise, it was finally made obsolete by Spotlight and Dashboard and removed completely from 10.5 Leopard. Good riddance!
