I discovered catalogs.google.com. It
looks like Google have scanned in, OCR-ed, then indexed whole stacks of printed product
catalogs. For example, a search for
CPU cooler
produces little JPEG extracts from printed catalogs, with the search terms
highlighted in the JPEG
I don't think I will ever ceased to be amazed, pleased, and tickled-pink about
the good things Google do.
Google are even running a programming competition at TopCoder.
They are even looking for more staff.
GIYF.
In fact, this now gives me a way to read Joel's
articles in Programmers Paradise. Searching for
Joel Spolsky
will lead you to
page 11 of the April 2003 edition.
