| Love 'em or hate 'em you cannot say Google don't have some GREAT ideas.. The latest, which I've noticed this morning is an addition to the Google News pages. Do a search for "Lewis Hamilton" (F1 Driver), in Google. Then click NEWS (to go to NEWS results for Lewis Hamilton), and you will see a QUOTE from Lewis, the date, and a source media outlet, along with a count of the number of times that quote is found online. Then you can click MORE from LEWIS HAMILTON to see more quotes from Lewis. Same for other's of course - try Kevin Rudd. You might say - so what - well two things. 1/ Technically brilliant, a simple idea "hey why don't we troll through all news articles and pull out all the identical quotes and keep a count and store of them and list them by speaker" 2/ Imagine just trying to get an overview of the key statements of the day, or from particular people. So easy.. Amanzing Stuff | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
