This should be the future of television. The New York Times put together a project that is phenomenal. They transcribed the Sept. 26 democratic debate. Not only it is transcribed, but the words are in sync with video....wait, let me just make a list.
- click on topics such as gay rights and illegal immigration and you are automatically forwarded to those topics of discussion.
- Word counts - see which democratic candidate said the most words
- Speaking time - see which candidate took up the most time speaking
- Word or phrase search - enter a word or phrase and see which candidate said the word, how many times they used it, and how they used it.
UPDATE: The republican debate has been added. Same idea, different people.
