Wired News: Pluggd: A Google for Podcasts: "Pluggd has found a way to index podcasts, talk shows and other spoken-word content. The company's service then allows users to search the audio files for specific words."
Holy cow!! What a development in information retrieval if this works. Speech--to-text searching, in context (later part of article says) searching, and the use of concept mapping and other visual representations of terms and term relationships-- wow these are all pretty big. Have to follow this one and share news with others in my grad community who work on similar things.
Here's a link to the Pluggd demo.
