Soundex is of course not a replacement for neither Redirects nor Aliases. Apart from that, Soundex, or its derivations, is getting better and better.
If you're working in English.
I don't believe Soundex per se (and Soundex is someone's trademark, I *think*) works in other character-based lanaguages.
I don't know any deatils about Soundex per se, but as with any technology, also software dealing with phonetics has only a limited range of application. The value, though, is when a technology can help users do away with trivia, so that more (manual) time can be spent on value, the semantics.
Oh, but you already knew that. =)
