Have you tried it, you need a mic obviously the you just speak your search. Bit hit and miss, fannies comes out as Fine Teas

be interesting to see how it reacts to different accents, I mean in Wigan the word Turps can refer to either cassette or video.
The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    I've found it weirdly effective before on my iPhone, but maybe my searches weren't regional enough. I tried your criteria:

    1. Funny
    2. Bunnies
    3. Chinese
    4. Bunnies again
    5. Fannies (spooky!)

    I hope nobody was listening.

    Its not on googles home page now. At about 6 oclock there was a mic in the searchbox that allowed you voice search. They must be testing it.
