Google Scholar: Any Comments?

["Masterson, Michele" <Michele_Masterson@simbanet.com>]

Has anyone tried the beta version? 

http://scholar.google.com/

Any feedback as to how well it works?

An interesting article about it: Google Scholar vs. Real Scholarship by
Andrew Goodman

My disclosure: I am writing an article about the launch for Simba's
newsletter, Professional Publishing Report, and would like to get your
input about how easy-to-use and efficient the site is for conducting
research.

Best,
