Feed Description: Weblog of Josh Baltzell. Focusing on the computer industry and .NET programming related news. I like to get involved on the discussions wherever they are.
My fiancee and I (and our friends) have a severe problem. We are unoriginal. We only speak in quotes from some of the best and worst shows in history (Simpsons, Scrubs, Seinfeld, Friends, Family Guy.) Because of this we often vaguely remember a quote but sometimes can not remember the show or movie it came from let alone the episode.
So Google read my mind and started capturing all the closed captioning text on TV along with an occasional thumbnails of what is on screen. That technology lets me post pictures like these that I found when searching.
The name of the service is creative as always; It is called Google Video.
Special Bonus Information: When doing a little research before clicking the button to post this so that both of my readers could see it I found a couple of other cool links for finding info about various medias. http://www.tvtome.com/, http://www.twiztv.com, http://simplyscripts.com/.
Consider that 6 minutes of research time my gift to you the reader.
