> "Is there any work left to be done?"

Google could search captions on all the Youtube (etc) videos. Not sure why this doesn't happen. Along with a few other big resources not indexed.

I think the big thing with the article(Taken as a workable technology) is it's not search, it's getting other peoples information and transforming it into a Google resource.

Which does add to humanities knowledge, but it's owned and profited on by Google.
