[Corpora-List] Web service for Web1T?

[William Fletcher]

Adam,

The license for the Google 1T corpus would not allow such a Web service:

  1. Permitted and Prohibited Uses

  1.2. User shall not publish, retransmit, display,
  redistribute, reproduce or commercially exploit the Data 
  in any form, except that User may include limited excerpts
  from the Data in articles, reports and other documents
  describing the results of User's linguistic education and
  research. 

Perhaps Google might make an exception for someone to provide a Web interface if no commercial gain is involved.  But, as Paul says, it would require substantial resources.
