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.

At what point will you admit that the stock you keep ramping is a bag of shite.

Maybe when it is at 10p or less

surely Autonomy owns a slab almost by accident or default, having originally owned the whole

Surely not cynic!Suranga Chandratillake founder and CEO of blinkx.what part of that dont you get?

my apologies, but i was under the impression that AU. was the original owner of BLNX and then split it off

===========
now see that SC was formerly responsible for AU. R&D or similar, so perhaps AU. just agreed to back his new company when it floated

CynicMichael Lynch is a geniushe has won all kinds of awardsand deservedly sohe has backed Suranga Chandratillake all the waysome say the relationship is shortly to become even more incestuous?

Correct Cynic. I see the dog is down again on opening.

Clubmanwould it be advantageous to yourself.if the blnx SP falls?.and at what point would you admit the stock you keep de-ramping might be ok?50p or more? honest answers would be nice.

Maybe worth a punt @ 4p but praying for this dog to delight punters is like expecting Gorden Brown to be truthfull

So no answers then?.honest or otherwise back to painting

You are as boring as the stock you are ramping. Goodbye and chock dee as we say in Thailand.

I thought you say Garry Glitter in Thailand?

The dog is falling, getting near to single figures. So sad for Tabby sauce I hope he does not lose his shirt on this.
