[NA] New YouTube/Google feature: automatic captioning and transcriptions

New YouTube/Google feature: automatic captioning and transcriptions.

The same voice-to-text engines they use for voice mail transcription can automatically generate time-coded captions and transcription of the videos you upload. Useful if you're uploading educational, instructional type videos. Can even generate captions in other languages than the spoken version.

There's a reason their stock is doing so well. Sure wish I'd bought 3000 shares at 50 like a friend of mine did--and she's still holding them all.

Cool!

Meh... Some of my GOOG shares were purchased just shy of $700 a pop, and they're still well south of that. I do expect it to recover eventually, though.
