Google Audio Search

As you must have noted by now that there is a Audio Search Option in Google Search.
This is the new experimental program from google like many others.

For Audio Searching you just have click on the small mic icon in the search bar and start speaking . It is quite a powerful as it is alomost 99% accurate. The accuracy of the search can also vary from accent to accent. I tried with different voices and it provided a quite good result.

I am wondering what can be the use of it. Many would prefer typing instead of speaking for search query. As this is the new initiative from google we can see more advanced feature and application of this technology.

I think it load only sometimes, it is working in Google Chrome and that is only for few searches . The reason may be that it is still in the beta stage and they are just testing it.
Although Google Launched Audio Search about few weeks back( 1 or 2) but that it was not so much accurate but now it work like magic.

So go ahead and search yourself and expose to the nextgen technology.
