"European companies develop search engine to rival Google", 16/01/2006
　http://www.digitalmediaasia.com/default.asp?ArticleID=12650
　"In his New Year's address outlining his administration's plans for 2006, French President
　 Jacques Chirac focused on plans for a European search engine to rival US internet
　 companies such as Yahoo and Google. Some of the top tech labs in France and Germany
　 are reportedly working on the 'Quaero' (Latin for 'to search') search engine."
　 ...
　"Those involved in the Quaero project, including Thomson, France Telecom and
　 Deutsche Telekom, have said that it will be much more than a typical search engine.
　 It will provide an array of multimedia tools for identifying and indexing images,
　 sound and text. Quaero will also reportedly include a powerful translating
　 tool which will be able to 'understand' audio as well as text."
