Search YouTube

Podzinger now lets you search through spoken words on YouTube. Podzinger has long done speech recognition-based searches of podcasts, including neat features like excerpting relevant bits of the podcast, but the YouTube search is new, and still in its infancy. Podzinger comes from BBN, one of the creators of the internet and email, and which was the setting for one of the more humorous incidents in AI history [scroll down to "an accidental conversation"].
That's great.
Does anyone know if there is an offline version of this? Anything that can index a directory of wav files?

Podzinger Rejects Jesus, and other Podzinger discussions at Language Log.
I find the idea of this technology exciting, but there's a hell of a lot of work yet to be done.

For some reason when I read 'Podzinger' it made me think of some kind of alien pope who steals peoples' bodies.
