Facebook Adds Audio Matching to Get You Posting More About TV
By Chelsea Lish • May 30, 2014
The social network announced a new feature that uses a phone’s microphone to identify a show or movie airing on one of 160 TV channels. Then, if users wish, it pre-populates a post with the name of the movie or TV show, identifying that TV shows’ specific season and episode so friends can avoid spoilers. The service can also identify songs and start a post with the title of the song plus a 30-second snippet.
