so either none of you (us) have heard of this, or my initial email was so vague that you didn't want to click on the link. Basically it looks like Mark Berres at U Wisconsin has developed an app that can template-match recorded bird song against a server-side database to achieve real-time identification of birds in the field. It looks like he is limiting it to birds of Wisconsin so far, and from the Google Code page it looks like it's up to 10 species (http://code.google.com/p/webird/) although that page hasn't been updated since early August. Anyway, seems interesting!
