It does what the name implies: it finds applications for you. If you have trouble finding an application, like accidentally taking off the address book off of your dock and can't manually find it in the Macintosh HD, Finder searches for it for you, and tells you how much space are in each part of the laptop. For example, it may tell you that you have 10 gigabytes of space left on the desktop, but only 300 megabytes left in the movies folder. It basically searches through every folder and everything and customizes the Mac HD to fit your needs.
