New at TechCrunch
My daily reading list includes a number of excellent technology blogs. I just posted an article about ReadWriteWeb and to balance the equation, here’s one about the other major blog on my “daily must-read list”. (I’m also adding TechCrunch to my Blogroll.) Here is an excerpt from a TechCrunch posting that I think will pique your interest!
Have you ever wanted to know when politicians are lying? A startup called RealScoop thinks it can nail it down for you in real-time with the help of voice analysis technology that it claims is used widely in law enforcement and fraud prevention.
Dubbed the Believability Meter, RealScoop’s analysis technology analyzes over 100 vocal elements of the human voice and performs over 1,000 calculations per second to find out if a politician or celebrity is telling the truth. On Thursday, RealScoop will cover the Vice Presidential debate between Sarah Palin and Joe Biden, putting each one’s statements to its Believability test.
