Designed for those who like to time shift news and commentary programs, this could be an add on to a digital video or sound recorder. You record your own list of words and phrases onto a database, By voice recognition it will match & delete certain terms and compress the program to make it shorter and
more meaningful.
Type - idea - into the form field.

This is the best idea since sliced
bread |
|
|
An idea whose time has come |

Make no mistake about it, this is a good idea. But it would make many sound bites disappear entirely. (+ Even though it I dont know how it works.) |
|

not sure I understand it yet. |

[po] it works much like voice dialing phones, where you say, "call my bookie" and it dials your bookie by recognizing your voice. Only in this case it matches words or phrases you have recorded like "evildoer. " or maybe like "on the ground, " to the same ones used in a long-winded speech or a talking heads program. It then deletes that portion, closing the gap in intelligent language, and delivers only the substance of the dialogue. Unless there is no substance, of course. |

Perhaps you could have it replace the cliché with a meaningful or more concise phrase, or even a different cliché. |

This idea gives 110%, it really does. |
