Search engine Google sets sights on video
By Jefferson Graham, USA TODAY
Internet search giant Google's next target: video.
Monday night, Google (GOOG) introduced a test site that searches closed-caption TV show transcripts (www.google.com/video).

What the site won't let you do is locate specific video clips, even though some smaller video search engines offer that. Google says clips will come in the next version. (Related: You are the everything? Google hires Firefox engineer)

Rival Yahoo (YHOO) countered Google's Monday announcement by saying it would incorporate closed-caption transcripts at its test site video.search.yahoo.com by the end of February. Yahoo said it also will add searchable news video clips — currently unavailable.

Google is working with transcripts from ABC, PBS, C-Span and Fox News.
