Hi Kevin, how would this integrate with your Storyline module? Understanding how you would like to use this within the context of a Storyline module might help me provide possible solutions.
It's outside of the capabilities of Storyline other than it's own search engine for searching content within the module via the player.
It would be possible to do this, but I would recommend using JavaScript as you would most likely be able to use an API provided by google, where a search term can be sent to the API and the results received as a data file, and then parsed and displayed within a WebObject in Storyline. As you can sense from this explanation, it's a programmer job.
