It does completely redefine the way you search the web. It's changing search results from text to thumbnails. That will be totally useless in many circumstances, but could be useful in some.

I remember when this came out -- they spent a lot advertising this same "revolution", there were billboards and everything for it.

That's not a redefinition. It's a modification. The hyperbole of "completely redefining" something is nothing short of presumptuous.
