I’ve tried Google, Yahoo, Singingfish and Blinkx. So far, my money is with Blinkx. It is really straight forward and gives me transcriptions of the video as well as the video. I mean it is pretty basic. I don’t know what else Google is going to come up with, but for now, it’s all about Blinkx.

I think one of the more important features of this will be the categorizing of data by format, region, style, etc, even more so than type of player. While it is easy for a bot to “search” a document for keywords, searching and categorizing this sort of content (and audio) is proving to be a much more labor intensive battle. I’ve been up to my ears in it for years trying to categorize radio stations and podcasts.

muNice, but how come an “early beta” of Yahoo Video produces exactly the same results as the established Altavista Video Search

Gracias por este nuevo instrumento de búsqueda y difusión de contenidos. Supongo que gracias a él los contenidos cientificos de algunas web de difusión quedarán más cerca del público. A mi me gusta.

This is a great way to pull up tutorial videos for software applications.

Nice! I obtained really interesting results. Makes me want to enter the digital world of video and release little movies on the internet as well. Keep up the good work !

Nice, but how come an “early beta” of Yahoo Video produces exactly the same results as the established Altavista Video Search? Apart from the obvious Yahoo-Overture-Altavista ownership chain, I mean. Did you merge the Altavista engine with Yahoo’s or viceversa?
