Curious about this:

I've got a site that talks about the latest videogames. I was planning to add to my news pages some search engine results (scraped and formatted in my display) about the videogame title. Now as long as I place a "Powered by MSN or Yahoo" (Google results are strictly prohibited except for personal use), would this be legally ok?

Thanks! Jay

Every site will have a section like this, or you could just search for it

Write your own bot if you're good at PHP and HTML scraping. Point it at a few related sites to start. Let it follow links to other sites too. If you want to use Google in a manner like that, get signed up on AdSense and they'll pay you to show search results.
