Surprisingly, I found Google Video's search capablities lacking compared to YouTube's. Google Video searches exactly what you're looking for, with no variations. YouTube is a little bit smarter, it can perform keyword branching, which surprisingly works very well for video searches. (When I'm searching for boobies, I don't care if it's one or many boobies they're showing.)
I'm a bureaucrat at the Vietnamese-language Wikipedia. Back in late 2003 there were few contributors (actualy just me and one other person). We slowly built the contents and the formatting. Slowly, more people came. We reached a critical point in late 2005 when we reached 1000 users. By the end of the year, we had more than 10000 contributors. We reached 10000 articles recently.
One thing we've learned is in order to attract native speakers, focus on the help pages. Spell out the policies, describe how to create new pages, and make newcomers feel welcomed. If you use the English version of the project pages, then only those who can speak English as well as that language can contribute. The discussion pages also need to be in that language, else it will exclude a majority of native speakers.
This might have some use to amputees. I heard a while ago that they were developing prosthetics with a sense of touch, but all they could do was distinguish between hot and cold.
Dr. Nick Riviera: "Sir, calm down, you're going to give yourself skin failure. The symptoms you describe lead me to believe that you are suffering from bonus eruptus, a rare disorder in which the skeleton tries to jump out of the skin. The only way to stop it is through transdental electromicide. I'll need a golf cart motor and a thousand volt capacimator, stat."
I'm currently a bureaucrat at the Vietnamese Wikipedia. In the first 2 years it had been building up a user base, currently with around 9000 registered users and 7500 articles. It had so far managed to escape government filtering and was even featured in some popular Vietnamese media and endorsed by the official government encyclopedia. But I'm not sure about its future, with a spate of new sensitive articles this week that was generating much more discussion than content. There had been previous attempts at making "made-in-Vietnam" free encyclopedias, but none are as successful as this one.
FYI, the "aff" means that it's an affiliate who's getting a share of the money for every item sold on eBay. The eBay affiliates are the advertisers, not eBay itself.
This is a stark contrast to Vietnam, another communist country. The Vietnamese Wikipedia, albeit comparatively small, have been given some positive media exposure in some major Vietnamese publications. It's even linked to from the official government encyclopedia.

For the most part, sites in the local language are much more likely to be censored than foreign-language sites.
For the vegetarian cannibal.
This allegation had been raised by the anti-Google camp before.
I was actually searching for these.

Yes, you can program your arm to do stuff while you sleep.
This sounds like the ESP Game project of Carnegie Mellon University.

Remember the days when ads used to mention their "America Online keywords"? Now a Pontiac commercial is telling the audience to "google Pontiac".

Yes, ad hominem attacks are much more easier than attacking the survey itself.
Ads with the label "aff" are not made by eBay themselves, but by their "affiliates" (ie. people who get a percentage for each sale).

Yeah, the number of people in China using those English terms to search must be overwhelming.
Only fitting, since the frown is already trademarked.
The McVickers invented it in 1956. Patent 3,167,440 was granted on January 26, 1965.

Claiming to be "tech savvy" without knowing Windows is like claiming to know the Chinese when all you've met are people in Hong Kong.
A pun in headline.
An Egyptian newspaper published these cartoons in October last year without a peep.
