Google Keyhole, Google Scholar

baegucb_18706 writes "The front page of Google has a link to Keyhole where you can download a free trial of satellite imagery. Is it worth the cost for a subscription, and is it the start of the real commercialism for Google? And a challenge to MS's imagery?" D H NG writes "According to CNET, Google introduced a new service for academics called Google Scholar on Wednesday. This service searches scholarly literature such as technical reports, theses and abstracts. This service will not carry ads." And finally, reader ian@FalsePositives.com links to some speculation about how a sufficiently competent search engine could write the news itself.

Ever heard of dual booting? Ever heard of VMware? Ever heard of Wine? Don't be the typical linux zealot and post retarded crap like that. You REALLY hurt the movement. If you're incapable if running windows or windows applications, then take it somewhere else where others may help you. Don't come here and try to be "cool".
