The future of SQL

Posted in All on October 30th, 2007 · No Comments

Slashdot lets us know that Google contributes code to MySQL.  Among the comments to that post, there is this one, which is while being rather funny holds some truth to it:

They need to add a GOOGLE function to allow queries to be searched nicer.

SELECT * FROM articles WHERE GOOGLE(’boobies’);

something similar might be available but it is a PITA to list the fields to search and specify the operators etc

I think here lies the future of SQL
