However, if any one has the cash and will to make it happen, I think we know that Google does. I don't really have a concern about geting people to participate. Once it catches -- and I'm sure it will -- Google will have no shortage of people who are interested to give their side of the story *in their own words*. The real question is how its going to try and monitor all of these kinds of issues and comments -- particularly when it allows anyone to comment. Will it try and do things algorithmically, or will it hire people to moderate? For a company that has built a 150B market cap on the former, its hard to believe that the latter is something they'd actually do ... but I think its all but it impossible *not* to do, especially at these beginning stages.

I just don't see a way to suss out legit comments without some kind of human intelligence layer. The overwhelming (except perhaps for lousy-with-resources Google!) challenge is to manage the incoming requests from PR companies, legit newsmakers, bloggers, crazy folk, and on and on. Everyone will have an agenda, and humans at Google will be forced to contend with what it all means. And one thing Google isn't known for (yet) is editorial prowess.
