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.

do any of these so called "visits" generate any income if so how much?

Haystackdid it ever enter your head why there was no hype from the company as BLNX shot up the Quantcast rankings in double quick time and just behind the likes of BBC and Apple etc. Did you hear one word from the companywas they shouting their heads offon the contrary they very rarely disclose more than they have to about anything. it was left to investors to delve and the World Cup was a big factorThe Doctor has fcuked up many in the Citythose that have stuck with him have become very wealthy and that will continue at BLNXbut the views of yourselfGausiejkdhilary and the gang make my shed load of money even sweeter

It just adds to the likelyhood that this is a flash in the pan and there is no real substance. Their hit rate now is lower than some very minor web sites.

time will tell ..... there is absolutely nothing on which one can hang one's hat for better or worse

t your post2520
do you want to read a post and at the end of it buy, or sell, depending on that post?
thats what it sounds like. are you looking for and expecting tips? so you read my post and end up flat? seems that disappoints you. what about if being flat may not make you any money but may Actually save you from making a loss?
anyway . i dont care. im free to offer my view on any share i care to. why should i have to have an interest? ( as in be a holder, or a shorter?) sometimes an "outsiders" unbiased or unblinkered view can be just what is needed on a thread. and if i wasnt interested in the stock then i wouldnt post about it anyway.
dont come back with that stuff about i dont hold so my opinion dont count anyway.
as for that other stuff about "those that have stuck with him have become very wealthy"thats a great one and often true.i seem to have heard all this from you somewhere else so it becomes less and less believable to me when you spout it. just my opinion as always.
oh and by the way congratulations to you for having bought in at a price of 12p.thats so very close to this stocks all time low. will you be looking to sell and then tell us all that you sold it at very close to its all time high? if and when we ever get there again. to be continued.

Strange how this has become the 'in' site here at MAM following on from some other 'greats' from the past.

Now let me think, oh yes, Worthington Nichols .... Henderson Morley ... Silence Therapeutics ... and good old Tanfield. All championed as the next best thing since sliced bread and er where are they now.

Just to remind everyone 7p ... 0.0somethingp ..... 6p ....... 30p (which in old money is what, 6p?)

Strange how the mighty have fallen ..

BLNX may well have a place but it's true place now is purely as a trading stock.

Tabster,

I'm pleased to see you've learned some humility since you nearly lost your key to the door the other week!

As I said previously, it would be nice if these deals were accompanied by some magic numbers. I suspect that's because Blinkx themselves are just stabbing in the dark with an unknown variable.

looking at the directors emoluments the directors have to be seen to be doing something!

I've been out of touch today having had a day of meetings, but find I've been stopped out and reversed again on BLINKX - am being whipsawed all over the place, but am short again - having lost 5.5points on first short and 3.5points on long. Am currently 2 points in profit on short.

Who'd be a trader?

ps - Batty, we're not in the same gang any more. Was nice whilst it lasted.

Hilaryre: ..I'm pleased to see you've learned some humility since you nearly lost your key to the door the other week!.
I have never changed my views or the way I express themsome say bluntly honestsome say arrogantsome like to hear it straightand some disapprove and dislike meI think you will find I actually helped AM
They have posters that were extremely abusivethose posters claimed they could behave as they pleased and AM could not and would not do anything about itthis caused a number of neutrals to openly question AMit would not be fair to highlightbut Im sure you have read the posts
In all honesty they could have done irreparable damage to this very good siteif allowed to continue
I believe that Michael could and did do something to stop this abusetime will tell?Hilary I would never sell my soul to the devilfar too much respect for myself!
Gausieyou have your own gangI have friendsslight difference?good post thoughhighlighting it possible for a stock to be so successful for investorsand yet a trader has managed to lose 9 points at any stage of this rise.mind-blowingand I hope many on here will understand my phrase traders beating each other up btw my name is Tabasco!
JKD.if you check back you will see that I posted up the week I made my maximum investmentand took a lot of stick off certain gang membersbut written proof nonethelessI could give you the date but.fcuk it?

HaystackI could also give you a long list of thoroughbreds to go with your dogsbut never fear there could be a plus side for you and the gangI will tell you this because I know it will please you allif BLNX ever hit 2 I would sell half my holding we will be gone for sure I have it in writing from the wife retiring to La Napoule SOFsome say it could happen in less than a yearI never predict pricesbut I would wind down my operations completely and just punt my portfolio when I can be botheredmy very good friends C&C will also be set up at that price.. so this could well have a happy ending for youlol
Cynica long post I knowbut double fcuk it!

Batty

Your post is such a complete load of bollocks, factually incorrect in pretty much every respect, contains wild speculation that couldn't be further from the truth, and is filled with so much delusional fatuous and pompous self-congratulatory nonsense that it's simply not worth a detailed response.

Off to rainham M&S for a blowjob - any message for your misses?

Gausieyour wailing/whaling is of Nantucket proportion!..lol

Gausiebe careful of your key to the doorlol

Back to trading even numbersvery volatilegreat for gamblers to get their injection risky on tight stopsamusing for investors to watch the movement swings on the price of a pintend of the daytoss of a coin.who cares?.the Royal Flush takes all in the end game!

A Smith and Wesson beats a Royal Flush.

No Gausie you have it wrong once againA Smith and Wesson shoots a cheat that pretends to beat a Royal Flush with Two Pairthe short looks a little dodgy atmwe could always play best of 55... glad to see you have calmed down a little...lol

Quantxast has Blinkx dropped from rank 201 yesterday to 207 today. It is interesting to see that the other web sites are remaining pretty constant in their position and it is just Blinkx that is falling through their ranks.

T --why don't you join the thread on the other side? Digitalis and friends are way ahead when it comes to digging out info and this is a definite advantage as blnx are secretive probably for a good reason. I hope La N has a racetrack for you to enjoy!!
