page promising developments Google Labs has a new project: GAudi (Google Audio Indexing) . It is a recognition technology and indexed the English language, which is extracted from the multimedia files, including video. / > Latest development Google a de facto started testing two months ago on a small number of videos from YouTube: see the news "appeared On YouTube a full-text search in video" . But it was a kind of "black box": we could just see a new feature, but did not know what was really behind it. Now published as a separate interface to search for videos (in this index in the future, you can load any video content from the Internet), as well as FAQ information . From the FAQ, we learned that the engine of speech recognition created from scratch special working group of Google employees.

Share of Google in Runet has reached its ceiling, and grow it will be able only thanks to major investments in marketing. This opinion was expressed by Igor Ashmanov, head of the company "Ashmanov and partners", at a press Breakfast last Thursday.

In this case, "things the company does, the masses are not as catchy," adds Ashmanov. Igor forecast for 2009 for Yandex, on the contrary, optimistic.

The company finally overcome the "crisis of growth" (one and a half years to mid-2007), settled the state and dramatically improved the quality of the services. The audience of Yandex, Almanova is just "ordinary people, office plankton". For them

Recently Yandex launched the Yandex.Answers http://ask.yandex.ru . At first glance, classical question-answering service. However, if you look deeper, yandeksoidy presented us with an interesting concept for a new search engine. Many of us experienced with the problems in the discussion of various topics in blogs and forums. Indeed, to get the right answer to the question, but it is very difficult. People can't read and not respond to what is referred to in the question, people answer, do not understand the subject, people are engaged in advertising. I tried ask the question on the website Yandex.Answers (intention question was asked in such a, not very detailed form), the result is obvious – the answer I never got. So, the main advantage provided by Yandex.Answers — search for existing answers. Why ask what someone has asked before us? Why waste your time on comments to incorrect answers if you can take advantage of the fact that people have already done it befo
