Google needs you!
Well your home movies anyway

The internet's transformation into a really dodgy public access cable channel continues a pace. Google co-founder Larry Page has announced that the company wants the public to send in its homemade videos - and he doesn't mind how mucky they are.
"There might be an adult section, or something like that. I don't think that is going to be a big issue," Page told attendees at the National Cable and Telecommunications Show in San Francisco on Monday, where he was speaking on a panel.
Google has yet to formally announce the proposal but Page said to expect the doors to open "within the next few days".
Officially, it's in the name of research. Google started indexing TV shows late last year, and Page wants to use the public contributions to test its prototype video search software, which uses pattern matching to find words or phrases in video clips. And surely there can be no more daunting a challange than to identify the tattoo on a swinger's cellulite-dimpled buttocks.
Unofficially, this is perhaps an acknowledgement of the web's changing demographic. In a recent survey 23 per cent of Britons cited pornography as their primary reason for getting broadband internet, far outweighing any other factor.

If there's any givers for the mutters, they'd better get hold of some of those dog condoms

I was thinking of asking the team to take an active roll in helping google with this project. Maybe we should ask members to supply their home movies here for quality checks prior to sending them to google......

Got Video?
Google is currently accepting submissions for it's new video search.
I think it's great - you can upload any video that you created and you can even charge money for it if you want.
https://upload.video.google.com/
FAQ here:

What is Google Video?
Our mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Currently, Google Video lets you search a growing archive of televised content -- everything from sports events to dinosaur documentaries to news programs. In addition to televised content, we're now accepting video from anyone who wants to upload content to us. Uploaded content will not be immediately available to users searching Google Video as this is just the submission stage of the program. But (if you'll pardon the pun) stay tuned.

Note that you must have a Google account to upload videos, I've uploaded this one so far:
