Description	From their site, June 2006: The Google AJAX Search API is a Javascript library that allows you to embed Google Search in your web pages and other web applications. To use the API, you will first need to sign up for an API key, and then follow the instructions below. The Google AJAX Search API provides simple web objects that perform inline searches over a number of Google services (Web Search, Local Search, Video and Blog Search). If your web page is designed to help users create content (e.g. message boards, blogs, etc.), the API is designed to support these activities by allowing them to copy search results directly into their messages.
