It seems to me that Google is a tool used by the general public to 
perform searches.  Perhaps the Google power should be similar.

Say, other players can "use" you to search for certain cards.  For 
example, somebody asks you to search for Attack cards of 20 or higher.  
You look through another player's hand (or the deck, or the discard 
pile), and can return any matching cards you find to the player making 
the query.  You're entitled to a lucre for each "hit."

Maybe have "sponsored links," too.  For example, if Anti-Matter has a 20 
that he wants to get rid of, he can pay you a fee (negotiable) to return 
it to the querier, even if you do not search his hand.
