Long long time no contact with you. Now I am working in a virtual reality project in the university of Newcastle. This is a pharmacist training project where a voice engine is embedded (currently use the free TTS voice engine in the project). However, there is only a male voice in free TTS. They let me introduce a female voice in the project. In fact, I have done 3D face modeling for the project. I am not familiar with voice engine (only from text to voice). Have you used the free TTS voice engine? Do you know something about it, or could you please introduce someone who is familiar with the free TTS? I am looking forward to your feedback. Best retgards, Kebing Dear Lao Qiao,

Their current search is primarily keyword-based, but they also seem to be progressing towards using more of a linguistic analysis of the query and/or pages. More can be in the works, for example look at the recent Yahoo patent described here: http://www.seobythesea.com/?p=994 Interesting overview; just wondering what Dr. Qiao thinks about potential competition from major search engines, like Google or Yahoo.
