YouTube launches voice-to-text to enhance its video search - TECH.BLORGE.com

YouTube has introduced its voice-to-text technology to enhance the search function, and to provide rich metadata for select videos. The technology makes the video headlines less important for searching now that any searched keyword can be found by searching the entire audio file instead.

With all of the new "Search engines" popping up, It's good to see Google/Youtube stepping it up in the "wow" division. At first I thought it meant I would have to speak to search,that would have been an extra step. What it means though is that now when I search for a certain video, like maybe a linux how-to, if the word I'm searching for is stated in the video,it comes up in the search...Cool!
