AMA video real time search tool

Because Charles’ AMA videos are such a great source of information, coming up next on www.adatainment.com: the AMA real time search. Just enter something into the search, watch the video or click a button to copy the link.

Search through all the breakdowns, the video result shows credit to the people who provided that timestamp. (at the moment usually @hayamoto_jr, @werkof and myself)

Following screenshot above is only a preview:

This is great! I should add that a lot of the content of this video is reflected in the roadmap section of the map which puts most Shelley rollout stages in a timeline.

I can’t wait for you to implement this feature! Such a fantastic idea. Think of the amount of time/effort it will save us when addressing repeat questions from those new to the Cardano project!

Thank You and keep up the great work @adatainment!

If anyone wants to try out the search tool, you can use this direct link because it’s not linked in the menu yet, there are a few minor issues to address first: https://www.adatainment.com/index.php?page=video_search_ama

Thanks Adatainment!!! Amazing tool!. 100% agree with you, “Charles AMA´s are a great source of information.”
I think almost all Charles words need to be recorded so future generations can continue listening to them.
Thanks for this contribution!

After now seven years, I believe this thread deserves a follow-up. :grin:

The AMA search is its own site now: askhosk.com. Same idea as the tool in this thread, rebuilt from scratch. Every adatainment.com/ama link redirects there, including the one I posted above.

What is different:

  • 726 videos, 24,919 timestamps, 2013 to this month, around 449 hours of index AMA videos
  • full text search across all of it, and every result is a deep link that opens the video at the right second
  • each video has a chapter overview and a short summary
  • topic and entity pages, so you can follow what Charles said about a given project or person over the years

The older videos are still the hand-made timestamps from back then. The newer ones were opened up machine-assisted and edited afterwards, which is the only reason the archive could grow this far.

What has not changed is where it started. The first timestamps were typed out by hand in 2018, long before any of this existed, we collected them here in the form and @hayamoto_jr and @werkof among others did a good part of that work. Everyone who ever contributed timestamps is on askhosk.com/credits, in the order they first turned up, and every video page still names who supplied its own.

Thank you for that. It outlasted the site it was made for.
