TV Searching at Google Video

Google has added a video search tool, Unlike the recently unveiled Yahoo! video search which looks for available video files on the Web, Google's video search is more of a television search since it searches TV closed captioning from CSPAN and San Francisco TV stations. It does not provide access to either the transcripts or the video of the shows "at this time" but only includes some screen shots and KWIC text. Still, this could be useful for finding text occurrences within broadcast TV shows.
