Multimedia Search
New Resource: CampaignSearch.com
We’ve mentioned many multimedia search tools on ResourceShelf. Today, in a News.com article, word of a new one. Say hello to CampaignSearch.com. This site uses voice recognition technology from StreamSage. From the site, “CampaignSearch.com has gathered campaign-related video and audio files from a number of Web sites: George Bush’s and John Kerry’s campaign Web sites, C-SPAN, PBS, NPR and more. CampaignSearch.com uses complex spoken-language-analysis software created by StreamSage to automatically identify the sections of audio/video news and speeches that are relevant to a voter’s interests.” More info about the technology here. Here are some other multimedia search tools that we’ve featured on ResourceShelf.
