Search worked better than expected on some queries
From 1 comment
The search tool worked better than I expected it to. Good job on that. I read on the YC blog[1] that you're using deep learning to index audio - can you explain more about this?…

Voice recognition works very well
From 1 comment
The voice recognition actually works very well. Obviously the results now look completely random.. To the point where it's actually funny to use

Objections
Search results often irrelevant or empty
From 3 comments
I like the idea (and we have the same retarded sense of humor) but it isn't consistently useful. I searched "hilary bosnia sniper fire" and got nothing. So spend less resources…
55555 on HNI searched for linux and got 13 results. None of them have anything to do with linux. How is this a sexy search engine?

I hope YouTube won't get upset with this and try to stop your project.
