content, content, wherefore are thou, content: Considering that the plays have been in the public domain for a few hundred years, it's unfortunate how little actual content is on that site - sure you can do a 'google book' or a 'google scholar' or a 'google video' or a 'google earth' search - but little else.

I guess it's a sad commentary on the modern World when pulp fiction like "The Da Vinci Code" warrants a month long multi-media extravaganza, while 'the Bard' gets a handful of search links.
