Classifieds have long been the 'doldrums' of any newspaper...people wander into them and get stuck, often for hours, trying to track down their particular item(s) of interest. Using something like this for targeted searching will help move this into a far more active and easy to use medium. Having spent countless hours paginating classifieds for past newspapers I worked at, I can't say I'm particularly sorry to get this bit of news. And the new search results will make Google top dog, once again, for a while at least...until everybody else starts doing it, too. …and you’re right about how it’s going to change the face of advertising, at least classifieds, rather sharply, too.

It's also going to completely change the web, I think. Whereas we once loved Flash videos, etc. on a website, only to figure out it didn't help search, so people stopped doing it, now to only find out there may be a way to make it work after all.

It's not just an issue of getting more of their "multi"media stuff to show up in the listings. They now have to worry about how all this new stuff pushes their regular web page rankings further down the page. “Next, this announcement throws a heavy monkey wrench into many a publisher’s SEO strategy.”
