An increasing number of people make audio recordings...
lectures;
presentations;
speeches;
radio broadcasts;
vidcasts;
forums;
video conferences;
skype calls;
assessments;
interviews; and so on.
Somebody is then often tasked to transcribe it. Why? Well by converting the audio into text files, the audio can be made searchable on the web, making it easier for others to find.
VoiceBase is a web service that lets audio producers perform this task with greater ease.
I'm an eLearning Adviser specializing in stimulating and supporting innovation in learning via eBooks, eMagazines, blogs (including audio versions), online TV, interactive resources, forums, workshops, conferences and face2face consultations. Evaluating and becoming familiar with sustainable and new technologies allows me to respond to the needs of learning providers from a position of experience rather than 'hearsay'. Supported learning providers, in the northwest of England (UK), can contact me for FREE consultations. Based at Lancaster University I work for the JISC Regional Support Centre - Northwest.
