ABSTRACT:
Systems and/or methods (“tools”) are described that enable indexing and storing verbal content, and other techniques. Some of these tools may be enabled using a computer-implemented method that includes receiving events that result from detecting keywords within a stream. In a first operating mode, the tools may create metadata in response to the event. The metadata includes an indication of the detected keyword and a time index indicating where in the stream the keyword was detected. The tools may also merge the metadata with a portion of the stream where the detected keyword occurred. In a second operating mode, the tools may associate data representing the keyword with the time index, and may store a record that includes the keyword and the time index in an output file.
