Title: The Amazing Google Post by: Jayce on January 25, 2005, 01:06:19 PM Now this, I am impressed by.
http://video.google.com Google -> More -> Google Labs -> Google Video Edit: but their URLS are too long. Edit 2: Oh screw it. Search for Starbuck. Apparently SciFi is on board. Edit 3: I mean NBC. Title: The Amazing Google Post by: Biobanger on January 25, 2005, 02:56:47 PM For now, seems like a waste of zeros and ones.
I searched for "bitch"... got a lot of Springer... and one episode of Seinfeld. Hmm. Anyway, Tivo > Google. Title: The Amazing Google Post by: Kenrick on January 25, 2005, 03:06:46 PM It's amazing, but I can't say I find it overly useful in its current state.
Title: The Amazing Google Post by: Krakrok on January 25, 2005, 03:19:09 PM The networks will never licence the copyrights to them for them to be able to provide the actual video. It would be interesting to know if they are storing the video digitally even though they don't have copyright clearance to do so. That would be the same thing MP3.com did back in the day with CDs and got raped in court for.
They could probably box it up with their Enterprise search boxes though so companies could search their own video but I'm pretty sure video companies can already do that. For example, sports casters have a searchable database of all their old video so when a newscaster says "do we have that clip of Bobby Brown hitting a home run in 1921"? They do a search, cut to the clip, and start running it all in a few seconds.

No good reason to. It looks to me like they're just storing the CC text and one thumbnail every thirty seconds. Title: The Amazing Google Post by: Kenrick on February 02, 2005, 01:19:37 PM Yahoo does video now too. Shockingly, you actually can search for video clips as opposed to timestamped video stills.

Maybe I missed the incredibly obvious useful nature of this somewhere. Title: The Amazing Google Post by: Kenrick on February 03, 2005, 06:32:20 AM Which "this" are you referring to, Google or Yahoo? Both?
Title: The Amazing Google Post by: DarkDryad on February 03, 2005, 06:48:19 AM I would say both. I mean you can buy the entire non chopped up versions on DVD of any semi successfull series
