Applying Google Search API

"Spolsky released the chapter listing of [ Best Software Writing I ] in June 2005, and I noticed that a lot of them were blog posts that I'd read before. I wondered how much of the book was taken from online content. A few minutes of hacking later, and a programmed equivalent of Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" had found most every single chapter, or a page that was one degree of separation away."

Nominations for Volume 2 of the compilation are listed on the discussion group of JoelOnSoftware
