I know, I know... strange headline, but bear with me.

Somewhere out there is a G00gle service (maybe by a third-party) where
you type in a search term, and it will come back with a list of things
the engine thinks that term "IS."  It gets this from search results,
then reparses them.

For instance, typing "bill gates" would return something like:
-- Bill Gates is president of Microsoft
-- Bill Gates is a ruthless dictator
-- Bill Gates is a philanthropist
-- Bill Gates is the son of William Gates Sr.

This is not Google's web quotes... the one I'm looking for returns
single sentences. I'm sure someone must know this off the top of their
head...

Hi Jhabley!

The Google service you’re referring to is Googlism.

“Googlism.com will find out what Google.com thinks of you, your
friends or anything!” Just enter the word, choose who, what, where or
when and then press “Googlism!”.
http://www.googlism.com


“Googlisms was created as a fun tool to see what Google "thinks" of
certain topics and people. Of course, the results are not really
Google's opinion, they're yours, the web site owners of the world.
Within the Google results are thousands of your thoughts and opinions
about thousands of different topics and people, we simply search
Google and let you know what website owners think about the name or
topic you suggested.”
