Abstract
A method for synchronizing multiple data feeds includes receiving a first data feed including user-entered textual data and audio segments acquired concurrently with the user-entered textual data from a first device, receiving an additional data feed including audio segments acquired with the additional device, the first data feed and the additional data feed acquired from a common sporting event, identifying one or more distinctive audio events in the one or more audio segments received from the first device and the additional device, determining a timing offset between the first data feed and the additional data feed by comparing the one or more distinctive audio events of the one or more audio segments received from the first device and the additional device and generating a synchronized output feed by establishing a common absolute time for the first data feed and the additional data feed based on the determined timing offset.
