The newsgathering potential of voice-to-text conversion service ...
A technology that first found the light of day as a neat device for converting voicemail to an email could improve searches for online video content and become an important tool for news providers, developers claim. Voice-to-text service SpinVox converts speech to text using an automated speech recognition system. Simon Crowfoot, the company's strategic business development director told Journalism.co.uk that voicemail was just one of a range of applications for the technology. SpinVox, he said, could be used to make video and audio clips more easily searchable by detailing the words contained in the audio rather than relying on tags and titles assigned by publishers. "Hypothetically you could go to YouTube and say, show me all the clips containing the word London, and it would bring up not just the clips that have London in the title or tags, but those where it's contained in the audio itself," explained Crowfoot.
Univision Battle With Televisa Places Programs in Jeopardy
A long-running feud between Univision Communications and the Mexican broadcaster that provides most of its programming is headed for a showdown in a federal court in Los Angeles. If Univision loses, it could see many of its prime-time shows yanked. While a dispute over royalty payments is the source of the current dispute, tensions between the two companies date back to bad blood between Univisions former chief, A. Jerrold Perenchio, and the late Emilio Azcarraga Milmo, who felt he got a bad deal in 1992 when the two men negotiated the original contract. If the Mexican company, Grupo Televisa, wins and pulls its programming, Univisions enterprise value could be chopped by more than $1 billion. The lawsuit centers on a program license agreement, or PLA, between Televisa, the dominant broadcaster in Mexico, and L.A.s Univision, the dominant Spanish-language TV network in the U.S.

I have to say I'd normally be very skeptical because I LOVE the movie, LOVE Gene Kelly and I have NO idea how they're going to pull off the amazing ballet. BUT, for some reason after reading through that I just have a good feeling about it. Harry Groener, Erin Dilly, Randy Skinner and the whole creative team, I really think they have a good chance at pulling this off. I'm really excited to see how it comes along and see what happens! re: THE LITTLE DOG LAUGHED's (with Chad Allen in Hartford, CT) artwork Jan 23, 06:56:41 PM SO cute.
