I think they use their DNS service to learn about new domains, it could be interesting if it could be used for new content but I don't think so.

They don't really need to, Verisign (for .com) and ICANN (for gTLDs) provide access to the zone files.

Depends on why they'd want to know about "new" domains. For indexing content, it would certainly make sense to index stuff people (appear to be) read(ing). Just because someone registers a domain, doesn't mean it has any (interesting) content.
