Anonymous Reader writes "Search giant Google announced its Google Video (Beta) search service to users earlier today. Now users can use video.google.com to search for transcripts and screenshots of a particular show and find the information in a simplistic format. Users will have the ability to search using a keyword or a key phrase, which will fetch the relevant search results. Currently, Google’s database includes thousands of popular shows, but it isn’t that massive, since Google started indexing the shows starting December 2004."

At first glance this service looks kind of useful, but I wonder where it's headed (porno search???). Like we really need that.
Here's the url:

For now, they only index KGO, KRON, PBS, C-SPAN, KQED, KNTV, Fox News, C-SPAN2 video and provide stills from the video.
Here are some screen shots provided by Google Labs about the Video search service:
