Hulu Plus has not yet come to the Android, but if you're an Android user looking to get your TV fix, there's now Bitbop. VoiceBase transcribes your audio files using machines or real people.Screenshot by Josh Lowensohn/CNET9.
#KENNY G SONGBIRD ARCHIVE#
The company envisions this as being a good way to gather and archive things like meeting notes for people who cannot attend. Once transcribed, these voice notes can be shared with others, who can create timed tags or cut out specific pieces. Here's another trick though: VoiceBase doesn't just use machines to do the transcription, for a price you can send it along to humans.To get your recordings there in the first place, the company has mobile apps and a way to upload raw recordings. Instead, it's something that you can search within, and jump to specific parts of with voice tags-exactly like what Google Voice does with your voicemails. But the end result is not just a static block of text. VoiceBase, which won a DemoGod award for its pitch, is a voice transcription service. The end result is built-in charts that are well-sourced and explained.Currently its focus is finance and government, but the company is also working on shopping and travel search indexes that would be able to answer questions like "what was the battery capacity of the first iPod?" 8. Semantifi is a new semantic search engine, whose killer app is that it can scour databases, then pull data from those databases to answer search queries. A sample listing on Needly.Josh Lowensohn/CNET7. It's got a few other neat features including video listings and not charging you to put things up for sale. Better yet, as a seller you can sell a high-value item without worrying about dealing with a bouncy check or a wad of cash. So say you're buying something locally and you've never met the seller, you can give Needly the money, then get the item, and if you get burned on the transaction you can get your money back. What sets the site apart from something like Craigslist is that it's got a built-in escrow service. Needly is a place to buy and sell things-be it the junk in your garage or a service like fixing a leaky faucet.

Beyond product scanning, the technology's creators say it's being used to help the vision impaired identify objects, as well as figure out what's in hosted Web photos and serve up contextual advertising. Then, the next time you, or someone else scans it, it'll get picked up in the system automatically. If you scan something and it doesn't know what it is, it pings a network of people who can look at it, and fill in the information (assuming it's something like a product). OK, to be fair this is a back-end technology and not an app itself, though to get a taste of what it can do try downloading oMoby, which uses the company's image recognition tool.What sets this image recognition tool apart from the competition is that it can learn. Foound can be found only on the iPhone, though its creators plan to bring it to other platforms.IQ Engines' Any-Image Recognition Engine can see what's in your photos.IQ Engines5. Foound solves this by offering up push notifications when a user adds anything to the event page, as well as providing a map that can be used to see how close you are to the venue. The service was designed by a group of friends who got tired of sending one another text messages and having to look up directions.

Foound is a very smart idea that takes some of the best features of an events service and scales it down into something that can be used for arranging smaller, less-scheduled events with friends.
#KENNY G SONGBIRD UPDATE#
The app also lets you update to Twitter and Facebook at once.Your phone may already have such a feature, but if you're looking for something a little different, this is a well-designed effort. Spark plays off this idea and gives you a rundown of information from social networks to news stories. A homescreen of widgets is exactly the kind of thing you cannot currently do on the iPhone, but Android and Symbian are happy to let you switch that up with something else. But not everyone uses Facebook, and not all of these networks are going to be doing that two way sharing, so Footfeed manages to fill that gap well.

During Facebook's introduction of Places, for instance, it was announced that a handful of these existing location networks would be sending that user location information both ways. To some degree the need for Footfeed could diminish. And after checking in, you get a rundown of how many points you scored, badges you unlocked, and friends who are nearby in each network. If it's not sure, it gives you the option to drill down into each network to verify that it's checking you into the right place. 10 cool Demo products you can use right nowĪs Footfeed demoed on stage, it's able to determine which business you're on on all of these various networks down to just a few feet.
