Podzinger, an audio-to-text podcast search engine, announced yesterday that it has added support for YouTube video searches.
We've [looked at Podzinger][1] before and there's a [Wired News article][2] as well, but yesterday's announcement puts the services quite a bit ahead of the competition.
[According][3] to a post on the Podzinger blog, the new YouTube search tools allow you to "search for terms that are actually mentioned inside the audio, allowing for a greater likelihood you will find relevant material."
As with podcast searches on Podzinger, the results page lists the time mark where the term appears in the video.
There's no easy way to compare the accuracy of Podzinger's search to YouTube's tag and metadata-based searches, but using both in tandem will at least give you an added way to find relevant videos.
Much like the podcast portion of Podzinger, RSS feeds are available for any search, so you can get notified any time a new video is posted where your search terms are used.
