Google Betas Google Print

Chronic Infection writes "Google is beta testing a book search service called Google Print. Here is a list of books included to date." Quick spot checking turned up excerpts like this one for The DaVinci Code, a great book if you haven't read it.

...a great book if you haven't read it.

"...a great book if you haven't read it."

I cant resist asking:

So how great is it if you did read it?

Another day...

...another step to sentience. Don't tell me I didn't warn you when Google starts taking over the world and starts creating robotic assassins...

Yeah, but...

At this point, we all know Google uses pigeonrank [google.com] technology.

While your post might have been valid a few years ago, ever since Google told us the real secret, it's hard to believe some people still think they use all those fancy algorithms and hyperlinkers.

Defective Large Print Edition

I just looked at the excerpt of "The Partner, Large Print Edition" but unfortunately the font was the same as for all the other books.

Bible

Out of all the wonderful passages in the Bible, they only included the Inside Flap. Although everyone I know always has a copy somewhere, but - come on - give us more!!! Holy Bible Excerpt [google.com]

Can't wait....

soon I'll be able to find that lost sock after washing clothes on google.

Re:Has anyone read The DaVinci Code?

[Fished]

I don't claim to know these things as fact, or anything like that. I do think it interesting, though, and I don't personally see it contradicting anything in the Bible.

We could start with the assencion... As the theory is stated in DaVinci Code, the Magdalene hypothesis requires that Jesus live substantially beyond the resurrection and father a family with Magdalene. More to the point... It would be theologically interesting to suppose that Jesus was really a woman, or that he was really had purple hair and a fro (cf. Godspell) or that he really never existed. But we have no evidence for any of those conclusions, any more than we have significant evidence that he ran off and had kids with Magdalene.
