Should Google be involved in diagnosing depression?

I read with interest this article which highlights how Google are looking to get involved with helping people to self-diagnose whether they have depression. They estimate that 5% of all searches are health related, and want to get on board with helping those who may not realise they are in fact depressed, to get help.

What do you think of this transition from search engine to the medical world? Is this the future?
