    Measuring similarity between two documents in the general case is an extremely difficult problem. I wonder how they do it, and how well it really works.

    Yes, it's fascinating. Another thing that occurred to me: if this technology is successful, we might see more instances of plagiarism uncovered.

    Looks like it would be useful to keep spam bloggers from taking your text's rightful Google juice. Techcrunch reports that they'll report who is linking back and who isn't.
