Google Real Estate? Google Autos? Not?

Steve Rubel, in posts, links to new types of searches Google is serving, from auto searches to real estate searches. But is this really news? auto and Google Base homepage lists twenty seperate types of specialized search Base offers, including podcasts, tickets and clinical trials search has types of diseases, trial stages, and testing centers. Now, we all made fun of Google Base when it was introduced as being too vague. "Upload anything", they said, and many were just confused. Now, Google is looking brilliant, as usual. Google is builting specialty search engines, simply by having users and companies do all the work for them, loading the info into the Google dataBase, and building a simple search engine front-end around it. As soon as they have a critical mass of data, they add the search as a OneBox result in regular Google search, and thus, they've added a brand new targeted search engine, with a minimum of effort. F-ing brilliant. Add to document.write("Del.icio.us") | Yahoo! My Web Technorati: InsideGoogle blog, offering the latest news and insights about Google and search engines.
