Evoca Adds Access to Podscope Database
Podscope, a free service from TVEyes, a service that allows you keyword search machine-generated transcripts of podcasts (suggest your podcast here) has made a deal with Evoca.com, a service that launched in March that allows you to create audio content with your telephone (and other devices) and now make whatever you say keyword searchable. Podscope.com also remains online and available.
Evoca is a fee-based service (first 60 minutes free) where you can post audio to your text blog but also share/store/ search it. Adding content to Evoca can be done by telephone, Skype, or your PC microphone. You can also upload any existing audio file. Sharing, tagging, forming groups, all possible. The bonus with this service is that whatever content you supply becomes keyword searchable in a matter of seconds.
“An audio site without spoken word search is like an iPod without a click-wheel,” said David J. Ives, president and CEO of TVEyes, Inc. “Evoca’s integration of Podscope search provides its users with a rewarding search experience that reveals more content for finding new people with common interests than is possible by relying solely on search of limited descriptive text and tags associated with podcasts.
Btw, TVEyes itself is a fee-based service that allows the user to search in near real-time just about all of the words spoken on major news networks and local stations and then watch/listen to the actual content on their computer. However, TVEyes offers a taste of their technology for TV for free. See this post.
