“Google Listen” for Android
Google Labs, as we said it many times, represent’s Google’s sandbox where they can try a lot of new technologies, and also sharing them with the globe. And if we talk about Google and new technologies we can always be amazed, and I guess this one it’s not the exception: Google Listen will provide audio search within th web, but wait, it is only available for Android (just for now I hope).
You can search, subscribe, download and strem podcasts and audio around the web. Interesting thing about this Android’s app: by subscribing to programs you will create a personalized audio-magazine.You can download Google Listen for your Adroid device from here.
You can see it like this:
Google Listen Home Page
The audio search is only available in English. And remember, this app belongs to Google Labs, so you should expect some bugs or lack of stability.
Also I’ve noticed that the Google Listen home page hasn’t been all that “available” in the last few days.

Unfortunately Google Listen is not listed in the Android Market for non-US phones
That is correct, only available for US phones and audio search for English.
Since the project remains very experimental, we are expecting to be released for other platforms soon as it gets more evolved.
Cheers!

It’s available for Aussies in the Android Market now.
