Leading News Organization ITN Extends Advertising Deal with blinkx Based on Proven Campaign Success




blinkx Selected to Power Advertising across ITN Website and Syndication Partner Sites




SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF. - July 2, 2008 - blinkx, the world's largest and most advanced video search engine, today announced that it has won an extension contract that will augment the scope of its advertising partnership with ITN, one of the world's leading news and multimedia content companies. Under the terms of the new agreement, ITN will use AdHoc, blinkx's patented contextual advertising platform for online TV and video, to serve advertisements on the ITN website and its syndication partner sites, including Bebo.




Through AdHoc, ITN has already been effectively monetizing its premium news content on the blinkx.com network for over six months. During this time, ITN achieved a significantly better return, greater search volume, and higher monetization through blinkx than through other syndication partners.




AdHoc uses blinkx's patented speech-to-text transcription and visual analysis technology to understand video content more thoroughly and effectively than any other service today, and can therefore dynamically place the most pertinent advertising against it. The AdHoc platform offers media companies and advertisers a unique value proposition -- video advertising which combines the emotive power of TV promotion, with the relevance and utility of contextual search advertising.




The confluence of ITN's premium TV content, blinkx's extensive syndication network, and AdHoc's uniquely powerful targeting capabilities was a formula for success. By extending its partnership with blinkx, ITN aims to achieve similar returns by leveraging the AdHoc platform to deliver contextually relevant video advertising on its own website and across its distribution partner sites.




'We're thrilled to be broadening our relationship with ITN,' said Suranga Chandratillake, founder and CEO of blinkx. 'News content is one of the most popular categories of online video and there's clearly a tremendous opportunity for monetization. The success of our partnership with ITN is evidence that the blinkx AdHoc platform is a uniquely powerful solution for online video advertising today.'




'We've been delighted with the results of our partnership with blinkx and are looking forward to implementing the AdHoc technology on our site,' said Nicholas Wheeler, managing director, ITN On. 'blinkx AdHoc has proven that it can achieve significant monetization of our content, effective marketing for advertisers and, most importantly, a useful, non-disruptive experience for our audience.'




As a pioneer in video search technology, blinkx has built a reputation as the most effective way to search new forms of online content such as video. With more than 350 partners and 26 million hours of indexed video and audio content, including favorite TV moments, news clips, short documentaries, music videos, video blogs and more, blinkx uses advanced speech recognition technology to deliver results that are more accurate and reliable than standard metadata-based keyword searches.

I don' t know why these prople don't just buy the stock,or find something else to sell short

Ditto Chess.but they are pronounced an arsehole at birthand work their way upGausie is use to having his own waythis has come as a shock!I see he got shot of Clubbywho dared to question his motives

Tabby - you don't have a clue why Clubby went. Because you're denied access to the traders' room.

Tell us then

I knowI like to make moneynot loose itbut you had something to do with itthats for sureClubby come back as Gousie or Goosie .give us a laugh!

Tabby,check out SKR,the crisis in wheat should provide good if not great opportunities to fertiliser related stocks (No SHIT !!)

Just been plugged by Motley fool.

Chess Ive heard that before somewhere

Tabby

You should have said you don't give a shit

Aldo no shit? Cynicare you lying low?are you still in these?

o/t Mr Cplease finish L 5-10 for me a n/r dont slip up.trade...Im getting lazy

A few buyers just about to turn up and queue.30p lol

Longer term this is still going to 30p or lower. Currently held up by hot air and hype - all of which will cool fast when the cooling begins.

It would need more than a few to form a queue. I presume you mean a cue.

:o)

Hilarynever presume anything with me.30p lol old Gausie is so annoyed he could snap a pencilI have never been so happy to see a smug plonker show himself up..pricelessthis could be 5 and you would still be arguing with yourselves

I'm not interested in your fights with other posters, of which you do seem to have rather a lot. I'm merely pointing out that the expression is "turn up on cue", not "turn up on queue".

Hilaryrather a trivia point for you to pick up onespecially as I am a self confessed thickoits just that I make more money than you clever tradersand as far as Gausie is concerned he has little respect on the investor bbsany person that talks about any Woman in the way Gausie does will not invite a lot of respecteven from his own gang member I would have thoughtbut you tell me?

Good for you Toya, pleased to see this has come good for you. Remember don't be sucked in by the hype and lock in profits somewhere.

Can't say I'm sorry to see the demise of Clubman, one of the most obnoxious posters I've seen on MAM. Quite frankly his outrageous racists comments should have seen him booted ages ago.

Tabasco, have you entirely lost the plot? I can't see why you have a problem with traders, most of whom also invest. I guess it comes down to the fact that the few traders who bother to post on MAM are generally successful, knowledgeable and also very helpful (if approached in the right way) basically all of the things you aspire to be; on second thoughts I can see why you have a problem with traders.

pth

100% agreement.

I was appalled by CM's racist posts and he should have gone a long time ago. Incidently Tab, that is why Scotty got booted-out as well.

PeterI am also pleased for Toyayou can say what you like to meit would be peanuts after the way Gausie has spoken about a ladyI will say thisI know a little more about the system than you would ever imagineyou are not squelchedand I like your good friend Cynic but that is my last comment to you on the subjectI am a lucky thicko that plays at least 12 hours a day to get this lucky watch blnx from a distance next week
DealerScotty and Clubby got booted out because they prevented or at least made it more difficult for Gausie at el from operating in their deceitful manner my team could all see the gangs attitude when the scripted crap was getting panned in the most comical waysin shortit pissed them offmy team do just the same but are a little more discreetdare I say shrewder sorry Clubby I will get the chop from AM eventuallyat least Tabasco will?but I make a habit of taking bullies down.and this has been rather funI could feel Gausie knotting up many timesanyway dealer I like youI tested you early daysand you are OK and dont take me too seriouslook for a gang member to respond now and analyselol

"I could feel Gausie knotting up many times" - did your misses write that bit for you?

ps Tabs - why do you get so wound up whenever I talk about your wife and her trade? Is it too close to the mark?
