TVEyes to make podcasts searchable with Podscope

TVEyes, a search provider for broadcast media, has announced Podscope, which they bill as “the first engine to search within a Podcast.” TVEyes’ Podscope enables the audio indexing of podcast content thus making every word within a podcast searchable. TVEyes crawls the web with Podscope looking for podcasts and creates an index against every word, thereby making the contents searchable. The user can search on a term, generate a list of results ranked by a variety of methods to find the most relevant podcast and click to play or click to download. So speak clearly, podcasters — Podscope will be available later this month.

Radio to crash the podcasting party

In an effort with Los Angeles based Bridge Ratings, Loyal Ears has designed a turn-key application that will use radio’s reach of 285 million listeners to bring free or pay podcasts to the masses. The technology provides radio stations with a platform for free podcasts with sponsorship opportunities or an on-demand model with download revenue. Armed with monthly research from Bridge Ratings, Loyal Ears will also offer a highly valuable advisory service offering new ways to advance commercial podcast efforts. Loyal Ears plans to roll out their client stations in April 2005.
