This is hugely exciting news. I previously used Google's Web1T corpus in NLP experiments and the restrictive license limited a number of potential uses. This new corpus has a temporal aspect (as it keeps the track of a word's usage over a given publication year) and is additionally under the Creative Commons license. I'd love to see this become the basis of a large scale database benchmark / competition or open source linguistic application.
