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.

PBT or NET?

Still loss making. Operating profit only.

Small market cap......cash in bank.....time for a rebound....

I wouldn't touch it with the proverbial barge pole.

Sell high...buy low....

Starting to rebound...

About time too !. The price drop has been rather overdone

Just an upwards blip on its ways down. Below 25p it might be overdone.

Hope not.....drop way overdone.....good company...

merely an observation
having disappointed the market and suffered the consequences, sp is pretty chipper for the 2nd day running with quite strong volume and bid/offer running at >2:1

Coming back a bit.....goodo !.....It's not often you can say : this is udervalued but it is at the moment.....and the bucks are rolling in for Blinkx !...

Nice rise at end of the week.....might carry on this next week....

About to drop below a support level. Clear air down for a bit if it goes below this.

i'm out of these about 10 days ago, perhaps more ..... only safe stocks are "NONE"

personally out just under a quid here but his wont be a google imo

It is incredible that Blinkx keep announcing all these deals and the price just keeps falling. It either suggests that the deals won't produce much revenue or the market has this wrong. Is there something fundamentally wrong with its business model long term?

The fall seems relentless. Where can this stop?

When/if they start paying a dividend maybe?

Still waiting for 29p

and then what? ..... you'll close your long-held short or buy? ...... funnily enough, i think this share suffers from an excess of news, for as there seems to be little impact on their next results, PIs have become disillusioned or confused or both
