google voice search

Google Voice Search has just introduced localizations for Latin America, Indonesia and Malaysia, enabling native language search for hundreds of millions of users.

Google’s official blog post offers some interesting insights into the process of collecting and analyzing the speech data needed to expand support. Thousands of hours were spent gathering voice samples and choosing key regional accents to analyze, and International Program Manager Linne Ha is clearly very appreciative of the Google users who helped the company complete the expansion. Without an enthusiastic base of users to lend a hand, Google Voice Search’s polyglot powers would have been nearly impossible to deliver.

Michael Bay’s robot flick will hit theaters again on Friday and run for two weeks.

The moon will go dark again as Paramount gears up to re-release “Transformers: Dark of the Moon” in IMAX this Friday.

The third “Transformers” flick is currently the second-highest-grossing film of the year in the U.S., coming in second to “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2″ with $348.5 million. “Dark of the Moon” will get a second life in 246 IMAX theaters in North America beginning on Friday, according to The Hollywood Reporter, and will run in IMAX through September 8.

In most cases, that means the Michael Bay flick will screen alongside already running movies like “Deathly Hallows, Part 2,” “Cowboys & Aliens” and “Final Destination 5,” given that Steven Soderbergh’s soon-to-open “Contagion” doesn’t hit IMAX until September 9.

Last year, “Avatar” made a similar move at the end of the summer, attempting to recapture moviegoers’ interest before the end of the blockbuster movie season. The major difference between re-releases for “Avatar” and “Dark of the Moon” is that James Cameron stuffed “Avatar” with nine more minutes of previously unreleased footage to entice moviegoers.

While “Dark of the Moon” doesn’t have new footage, the newest releases haven’t been big draws at the box office and that may make it a good time to try to nab any stragglers who still want to see giant robots blow things up.

Christopher Nolan’s Batman flick also benefited from this strategy. After its initial July 2008 opening, Warner Bros. gave “The Dark Knight” a February 2009 IMAX re-release. And even though the studio bypassed the summer movie season for the second release, the stunt still worked. There was plenty of residual interest in the flick following its Academy Awards success, and the second run helped push “Dark Knight” onto the list of the highest-grossing films of all time.

It will be interesting to see if this becomes a trend in summers to come, with blockbuster films like “Prometheus,” “Men in Black III,” “The Amazing Spider-Man” and “The Dark Knight Rises” all set to hit theaters in 2012.

If the thousands of screaming Brazilian fans at HSBC Arena didn’t convince you of Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira’s popularity in Brazil, this backstage video of Nogueira’s friends and teammates celebrating after his win will.

Filmed by Gesias “J.Z.” Cavalcante, it shows the room erupt at Nogueira’s win, and the several men grow emotional as the noise dies down. Anderson Silva, who was less than an hour from his own big win, grew emotional from seeing his friend win.

This video reminds us that all the talk that fighters give to the team in MMA is not lip-service. Nogueira’s win didn’t just belong to him, but to everyone who helped him — or he helped — along the way.

Stranger Danger

My sister recently had a talk with my four-year-old nephew Jack about strangers. Here’s how it went:

SISTER: Now, Jack, if a stranger says, “Come here, I want to show you something,” what do you do?

JACK: I turn around and run!

SISTER: If a stranger says, “Come here, I want to give you some candy,” what do you do?

JACK: I turn around and run!

SISTER: If a stranger says, “Come here, I want to show you my puppy,” what do you do?

JACK: Oh, I love puppies…

Teen heartthrob surprised concertgoers when he joined Swift for a duet on ‘Baby’ Tuesday night.

Justin Bieber is all about surprises this summer. Back in July, the 17-year-old pop superstar took fans by surprise when he joined Selena Gomez onstage in Costa Mesa, California, and on Tuesday night, he made another unexpected appearance when he joined Taylor Swift onstage for a duet of his hit “Baby” at her Speak Now tour stop in Los Angeles.

Video footage of the duo’s performance at the Staples Center hit the Internet shortly after the concert. It shows the music superstars sharing song verses and Bieber spitting a brief rap midway through the number.

Swift took to Twitter hours later to applaud her roaring concert audience and their overwhelming reaction to the Bieb’s surprise appearance. “Dear amazing LA crowd tonight, God only knows what I’d be without you,” she wrote. “You think you’ve heard LOUD screaming in your life. Then @justinbieber comes out and does a surprise song during your show. Woah. Unreal.”

Bieber responded to the country-pop darling, tweeting, “@taylorswift13 we should do that more often. :) great show! #muchlove.”

It was nothing but love as Bieber’s manager, Scooter Braun, also chimed in on the surprise concert cameo. “Had to keep it a secret all day. But @justinbieber just came out and sang BABY with @taylorswift13 at STAPLES. EPIC ROAR! #greatmoment,” he wrote on Twitter.

Bieber also recently collaborated with Chris Brown. Earlier this month, the Video Music Award nominee showed off his rap skills on “Ladies Love Me,” a track that appears on Breezy’s Boy in Detention mixtape.
