Content Keywording Freeware Releases Major
Upgrade
NEW YORK, NY - November 2, 2000 - StockMedia.net announced today at PhotoExpo a significant upgrade and online availability on November 6 of Keyword Creator™, a freeware to facilitate the selection of words or metadata to be associated with photos, video and music for searching and finding that content in a database.
Keyword Creator™ enables the user to select words from conceptual categories in one of six languages, then automatically translates the chosen words into five other languages so that content can be searched by international users. Languages supported are English, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese.
The version 1.1 upgrade adds 1,500 new keywords, the ability to add proper names, the ability to selectively remove keywords and thesaurisized words, a find capacity, auto set-up aids and more.
"The keywording process is a major obstacle to preparing content for online searches," says Evan Frohlich, lead designer for the pro bono project. "Our goal is to create a global, open source standard that will expand and evolve with user participation."
The Keyword Creator™ template upgrade v1.1 can be downloaded for free, in MacIntosh format, from www.stockagencies.com and from www.stockshooters.com. A Windows version is expected shortly. Windows version 1.0 is online until the upgrade is complete.
Keyword Creator™ is created with and powered by FileMaker Pro™ 5 for Windows and Mac OS from FileMaker, Inc., a leading provider to the growing Web-publishing and workgroup database markets. FileMaker, Inc. is the database software subsidiary of Apple Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL).
