I *think* we got that... but presumably it's only interesting because
it's Google and would therefore get a wider user base if it was
released? Unless I'm missing something (entirely probable).
In general it's been fun watching the search engines suddenly try to
out-do each other to playing to the latest trends - lightly structured
data formats (RDFa, RSS), pseudo-semantic searches and silly names
(Microsoft's Bing, Wolfram|Alpha).
