It seems as though a query for “actors” provides a list of actors that include the day they died. Not a problem if you are doing research on Jimmy Stewart or Paul Newman. But I don’t think Dustin Hoffman would be too happy to hear that Google thinks he’s already dead.

Google Squared has the potential to be a very powerful and useful tool indeed, but they’ve still got a few kinks to work out.
