    Subject: Query on the use of Google for corpus research

    Hi all,
     
    Someone has written to ask me whether there's any foreseeable problem/objection in using Google to gather statistical evidence on particular language usage, using key word searches. It involves a submission of an article currently under review. Does anyone have any experience/insight on this?

    Cheers,

    Michelle
