Amazing features coming to Google In Future

One would think that web search is a solved problem, however this is not the case according to Google. Google's Udu Manber talks about some of the challenges here. One of the amazing features described in the link is the capability of writing a query in a foreign language, Google translates that query into English, searches the web (Most pages on the internet are in English), and returns matching results in the same language as the query, hence it automatically translates the pages. This is an amazing feature in my opinion.
