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.

Arrh, H it's all clear now, you got your fingers burnt and you feel bitter so waste your time knocking what in fact is rather a different company now, or at least the move into profitability didn't come soon enough for you. Well sorry because it's not great losing but you got to take it on the chin, had you held you'd be sitting pretty true enough or clawing it back but we all make mistakes. You got to move on. Buy now, you'll prob recoup your losses many times over. Cheap as chips, profits are going to multiply several fold very quickly IMO as will the sp. This isa growth market and Blnx has the best technology in internet video. Mobile video and gerefore ads is going to be massive an Blnx will be there raking it in.

Wrong. I would never have been tempted to buy Blinks at any point. It looks no better to me now than it did in the past. It is just my personal opinion. Don't feel bad about it. If you like it then that's fine.

Admit it, you're obsessed with Blnx! Just buy em

why should he?

Cynic…get smart…he just oils the cogs of traders….that’s his job!

More silly conspiracy theories.

Ok…you’re a bin case with too much time on your hands….

Either way…one to swerve!

Always the same with fanatical stock believers getting bristly when people say unkind things about the object of their worship.

Ok…a bin case with too much time on your hands it is….

BB are for discussions and putting one's point of view. My point of view is that BLNX is overpriced and due for a major fall.

Yes…..you seem to have a lot of time to talk about things you have no interest in…any views on the Guatemala sinkhole? lol

I have an interest in BLNX, just not a financial interest. I don't mind you being a fan of it, so I hope you don't mind my hating it.

hays has every right to dislike blnx, just i do asc and for a slightly different reason, wos ...... there's also a few joke mining stocks that deserve to be slated too

Strawman…you posted, “Haystack - 12 Jul 2013 20:45 - 4563 of 4603
cp
Gausie does have an interest and I don't.”

You clearly stated you had no interest…financial interest was never mentioned by you…you just said you had no interest….

Now you say,…”Haystack 18 Jul 2013 15:47 - 4603 of 4604
I have an interest in BLNX….”

Which just goes to prove…you are full of bollocks!

Cynic....yawn..........

Don't be even more silly and obtuse than normal.

Strawman…just posting facts….I know "Facts or honesty" never feature in your posts….but I simply cut and pasted your downfall…simples…but then again you make anything simple look hard…..toddle pip

You just choose to misunderstand words in their context. Nothing new there then.

As Seargent Friday used to say in the very old TV series " Dragnet " " Just give me the plain facts ma'am"
