Google Compound Documents

January 12, 2011

Short honk: Just when you thought you could search the content in a word processing document, life becomes more exciting. “You Can Play Videos in Google Docs Now” reported that “Google has introduced support for video playback.” The write up said:

Google’s YouTube remains the destination of choice for anyone wanting to share a video with the world. But you can host and share videos on other Google products, Picasa expanded support, also via the YouTube player, last year and Docs now followed.

No word about one’s ability to search for a word or phrase within an embedded video in a Google Document. This feature is available from Exalead in Paris, however. See this Exalead Labs’s description.
