isoHunt Launches “Talk to Torrent” Feature

BitTorrent search engine isoHunt implemented a nifty feature a few days ago.

You can now search for torrents without having to touch a keyboard. Just talk into your microphone and isoHunt’s cutting edge technology does the rest.

“We beat google to adding speech input on their search box,” isoHunt founder Gary Fung told TorrentFreak.

The speech input feature only works in the Chrome browser.
