Searching by Sound

Posted by: Jocelyn Edin

A few weeks back, Q had a brown bag seminar on the future of search. Lots of interesting topics and tidbits were discussed, but one site that amazed me was Midomi. It’s a web site (and iPhone app) that lets you hum a tune or, with the app, simply hold your phone up to music, and in response it will pull up a list of search results for songs/tunes that most closely relate to the sounds it heard. You’ll never have to be hung up on that mystery song in your head again! Awesome.
