Google Video

About Google Video: "Google Video will search the closed captioning text of all the programs in our archive for relevant results."

Oh, wow. That's nice. So if people want to be listed, they have to hire good captioner. We may see a marked increase in the quality of captioning, especially on the news.

I'm so surprised that Google is actually putting closed captioning to good use beyond its original function of servicing the Deaf.

The text we use for searching Google Video is captured from the closed captioning of each program as it airs. Closed captioning isn't always accurate and errors can occur during the transmission.

Someone there knows what closed captioning is and wants to help us.

This will really help me because I look for transcript of any aired show, since I can't hear audio version.
