Firefox Plugin Annodex For Searching Audio, Video

Posted by timothy on from the well-lookie-and-hearie-here dept.

loser in front of a computer writes "ZDNet Australia reports that 'Australia's CSIRO research organisation has developed a Firefox plugin named Annodex that allows browsing through time-continuous media such as audio and video in the same way that HTML allows browsing through text.' I've just checked Annodex out and it's very cool. The sample video from the Perl conference is way funny too." The catch is, the media to be searched has to be prepped first.

    indeed, this is really cool though, I can now search for mp3's in html format! I wonder when the porn implemation for this kind of stuff will be made.

    I expect once we get quantum computing in 20 or so years this will solve the video problem ;)
