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.

Agree with the traders theory, they cannot wait to get out of stocks rather than
stay in them, mm's just know all they have to do is drop one quote on L2 and they
are flock to give their stock back to them especially in the small oil and mining stocks, Blnx does surprise me because i've never really liked it even when it was
20p but i wont be deramping it here but catch them when sentiment is hot and it
dont matter what the fundamentals say they keep rising, i'd be tempted to sell 10% into each 10% new rise just to be safe in the knowledge that you have got some out at the high if they do start to fall back medium term.

RDGall investors have different financial backgroundsand so have their own price/profit strategy.cut your cloth etc I would never argue your or any other investors theoryI would just say back your judgementand be patient! good luck with your stock picks

ITN has struck a deal to provide video clips to the free daily newspaper Metro.

From today, ITN will syndicate video including UK news, world news, sports and showbiz to Metro.co.uk, as the title, which is owned by the Daily Mail & General Trust, looks to expand its digital offering.

Metro distributes 1.3m copies every weekday in 16 cities across the UK, while Metro.co.uk publishes to 2.5 million monthly unique users in the UK.


Jamie Walters, digital director of the Metro, said: "We are really excited to be able to offer our users of Metro.co.uk more choice in the way they consume their online news."

Metro joins a host of UK publishers taking video content from ITN, in which DMGT has a 20% stake. Earlier this year the broadcaster began providing video news to AOL UK, syndicating hundreds of hours of video news to the company which has pledged to be the "largest net hirer of journalists in the world". It also added local newspaper company Iliffe News & Media to its Premium News Network video syndication package, which includes advertising provided by Blinkx.

Chart still indicates short from100p, but will re-evaluate when and if it gets there.

pth
price closed at 78.75. your post seems pretty confident price will rise to 100 at which point it is likely to be a short, but may not be, it will be re-evaluated when and if it gets there.i should like to comment on this . before u know who jumps in.
now much as i dislike t's attitude, demeanour, arrogance, and everything else about him, which i do. just because he seems to champion this stock dont make him wrong on this occasion, even if he has been on many others. after all law of averages says that eventually he will get one right. and when he does you can bet your bottom dollar he is going to give it everything it is worth and maybe more in terms of fronting out his rightness and never being wrong and running down all and anyone who disagrees with him. along the way he may pick up a few new followers such as chessplayer. he , chessplayer is probably not aware of what happened to t's other followers of his losing stocks and posts who t simply used and discarded after they had served their purpose and he certainly aint going to make him aware either.
work out your hes and hims for yourself.
anyway chart to me, as of today says up.how far i dont know. but i aint buying. i aint selling either.
as always all just my opinion.
regards to you

Hi there folks,
I don't think we are on this site (Money AM) as part of some popularity contest. If they are,then there plenty who are not doing very well at scoring points.Not with me at any rate.
If somebody makes a hatful of money I reckon that they are entitled to gloat once in a while,for there isn't much to crow about when you lose it.

JKDI am very hurtof course you are entitled to say you dislike my attitude demeanour arrogance.. and everything else about mein the same way most people that actually know me think I am smartwitty debonair and very rarely wrong did I miss out handsome and a Gentleman?
Right let me ask you to clarify your postfirst of all I am very rarely wrongand quite luckyyou might be able to quote one loser against my namethe law of averages says that eventually I will get one wrongbut please post up all the others that you claim I have failed onI am confident you wont find anyif you do I will post ten winners to each of yoursquite a good return I would say!
The other point that you made washe may pick up a few new followers such as chessplayer. he , chessplayer is probably not aware of what happened to t's other followers of his losing stocks and posts who t simply used and discarded after they had served their purposewho exactly are you talking aboutand what are the losing stocksif I like and respect someoneI will stay loyal irrespective if our views differAndyKimCynicDealerSkinny are just a few examples off the top of the headapologies to the many others
I do not like or respect you or the rest of the gangplease name posters that you claim I have used and dumped?I am still friendly with many of the posters from mdx days
That was a nasty comment that highlights the reasons for my dislike of yourself!
So let me just once again ask you to confirmall my losing stocks that you claimedand the posters that I have discardedfor anyone else reading thisJKD will not answerthat I am confident of as his post is untrue!!!

I have said all along I expected the SP to hit 100p, that it wasn't a short when others were saying it was and I haven't seen anything to change my opinion. But as we both know, TA changes on a daily basis and we'll see what happens, 100p may not be hit at all but there is going to massive divergence unless the SP really does rocket away. From what I've read and a gander at the accounts, the company doesn't merit that sort of valuation, but then the market will make up its own mind. As far as tabasco is concerned, he can say what he likes, throw enough darts and eventually one will hit the target. The BB is a little bit quieter for me without him, funnily enough I don't feel like I'm missing anything.

My kids have "Selective Hearing". They never hear me when I ask them to empty the dishwasher as an example, yet they always seem to hear whenever I ask if they'd like ice cream.

"Selective Memory" is very similar in many ways and includes people who are never wrong forgetting to mention piles of cr@p like Meldex.

Hilaryif you say the same oldsame old to your kidsthey dont have a selective memorythey are bored same as the lucky thicko!listen to them sometimesyou might get a pleasant surprise come on JKD post it up!

Same old, same old presumably includes every single post saying how you're a lucky thicko who's never wrong. Maybe people are bored hearing it.

Just a thought.

Or every single post where we ask you to be nice hilary but you respond
with abuse !

No, it's only you I abuse, Dickhead. Tabster's actually quite likeable in his own little way!

Do you always wake up so bitter then hilary ?

Tell uncle ravey, i might be able to offer some good advice :-))

I've witnessed some of your "good advice" on these boards previously, so I think I'll pass.

How are the pizza deliveries in Liechtenstein going? I imagine they're an uphill struggle.

The price on that is exactly the same as it happens.

What's up Hilary, you cant live your life here forever with this arrogant nature
of yours, then again haystack does, are you two married perhaps ?

Hilary re:-
Same old, same old presumably includes every single post saying how you're a lucky thicko who's never wrong. Maybe people are bored hearing it.
I could post that I am genius at making good callsbut modesty forbids?after allfew like a smart arseeven less like a wealthy smart arseand a good looking wealthy smart arseis too much for JKD.

Of course I am joking...not a smart arse at all!

Haystack.this is from a poster that is on the shorters/your sidelol....

OK Zippy has no credibilty with ridiculous 3p valuations, but at least no-one takes him seriously.

Blnx surely must be involvedexpect an RNS before the weekend >



02/09 10:00 - Samsung Unveils IPad Rival In Galaxy Tab

By Roger Cheng
Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES

SEOUL (Dow Jones)--Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. (SSNHY, 005930.SE) on Thursday unveiled the Galaxy Tab, its take on Apple Inc.'s (AAPL) iPad, as more technology companies trickle into the nascent tablet market.

Tablets represent a potential new source of revenue for Samsung, which is making up for lost ground in the intensely competitive smartphone business.

Rather than sell it directly to consumers, Samsung will rely on its carrier partners to sell the Galaxy Tab, which runs on Google Inc.'s (GOOG) Android software, comes with a cellular connection, and features a 7-inch screen. The tablet will initially debut in Italy, moving to other markets as Samsung locks in more carrier deals.

It is expected to launch in the U.S. over the next few months, but the company would only say it was in talks with multiple carriers. The Galaxy Tab is essentially an enlarged version of Samsung's flagship Galaxy S smartphone, which orignally was available through AT&T Inc. (T) and Deutsche Telekom AG's (DTEGY, DTE.XE) T-Mobile, and more recently Sprint Nextel Corp. (S).

While a price hasn't been set, Samsung product executive Hankil Yoon said in an interview that it would likely retail for between $200 and $300, although the final price would vary depending on different carrier subsidies.

Yoon expects to ship 10 million units and take a third of the global tablet market next year.

But it's unclear if any tablet beyond the iPad will prove to be a hit. Samsung follows Dell Inc. (DELL), which launched its Streak through AT&T last month. More tablets are expected for the holiday selling season.

While many companies are devoting resources toward building a worthy iPad competitor, history shows that Apple often enjoys a lengthy lead with its products, said Rhoda Alexander, an analyst at iSuppli.

The iPad, which sold 3 million units after 80 days in the market, is expected to control three-quarters of the tablet market this year, with its share only slipping to 62% by 2012, according to iSuppli.

Like the iPad, the Galaxy Tab customizes core applications, such as email and contacts, to take advantage of the larger screen, offers Wi-Fi capabilities, and provides a hub for reading magazines, books and newspapers. It also lacks a removable battery and requires a proprietary dock to connect to a PC.

The Tab sets itself apart on size. The 7-inch screen allows for a slimmer profile than the iPad, which packs a 9.7-inch screen. Also, the Samsung device supports the latest version of Adobe Flash--something the iPad doesn't do--enabling the Tab to show more video found on the Internet.

"It's a truly mobile device," Yoon said.

It features a camera on each side of the device, as well as a slot for expandable memory. It also has the capability to make phone calls, but carriers will decide whether that capability will be offered. Yoon said Samsung plans to support the device with two major software updates a year.

The Tab will run on Android 2.2, the latest version, and will have access to the Android Marketplace for a number of applications. But Gartner analyst Carolina Milanesi said she was concerned about how many apps will be designed specifically for the device. The iPad already benefits from a number of third-party apps that utilize its larger screen.

Samsung is exploring the possibility of a tablet with a 10-inch or 6-inch screen, and Yoon said the company plans to eventually launch a family of Galaxy Tab devices. Samsung has invested $200 million in advertising the Galaxy S phone around the world. The company plans to spend less promoting the Galaxy Tab, because it feels the product appeals to more of a niche audience than the more mainstream smartphone, said Samsung mobile marketing executive Younghee Lee.
