I got some free shares in this one and also topped up on the profit taking. It's been all downhill so far but I feel this one could take off very quickly or be gobbled up by one of the giants. Anyone else joining in the wait and see brigade??

60p will be achieved and very surprised if not exceeded

RNS BLNX directors have no knowledge of any takeover bid.

oh dear...this has roll back down...false rumours have occurred. I just sold nursing a loss

Blinkx moves to quash bid rumours - AFX

LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Blinkx Plc. issued a statement saying that it 'is not aware of any external bids or bid-related reason' for the recent rise in its share price.

At 1:32 p.m., shares in the software developer were up 2-3/4 at 27-3/4, down from an intraday high of 38-1/4.

The company's shares were boosted Friday by rumours swirling around of a 60 pence per share takeover for the company, possibly by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp.

I'm still holding for the results--any time soon. Microsoft, Google and News Corp are all well aware of the merits of this co. and have sniffed around before---only a
matter of patience IMO.

I'm holding on also(unusually for me!). I believe the fundamental technology is what it's all about, and I thought this little snippet that I came across today was interesting - and would show why Google might be interested:

"More people visited Blinkx-linked videos by weekly market share than Google's UK service, data compiled by third party reporting agencies like comScore, Hitwise and Quantcast showed in November."

Furthermore, the sp has recovered reasonably well, considering the earlier panic sell-off.

I added a few on the dip--no smoke without fire! mind you some people made loads today on trading. I just think the people buying 500000 lots today are not buying for a quick buck. If this copies Google sp I'd be well pleased!

I am holding - this with patience will keep rising even without an imminent bid - but i am equally sure a bid will be forthcoming eventually and a bid war to follow - blinx small bucks spend wise to the giants of google etc & Toya picked up interesting item also

Company ahead of plan in move towards profitability

Content hours more than tripled since IPO, from 7 million to 26 million

Commenting on the interim results Suranga Chandratillake, founder and CEO of blinkx, said: "We are pleased to report a strong performance throughout this period; blinkx surpassed all of the business, financial and technology goals set at IPO . . . Throughout the year, we have cemented our position as a leader in online television and video. blinkx has a unique advantage in this new universe because our technology was built from the ground up to navigate rich media, and understands video and audio more deeply than any other solution today, and therefore we're able to evolve strategically and with tremendous agility to respond to external market trends . . .
