Search Engine For TV
blinkx announced the availability of blinkx TV, the first search engine that allows you to search TV across news, sports and entertainment programming.
blinkx, is the first search engine to make such TV programs fully searchable on demand. Because blinkx captures and indexes the entire video stream directly from the television, consumers can get straight to the exact clip they want.
"blinkx TV fills the gap between the explosion of rich media content and the growing consumer interest in harnessing it. At blinkx we've recognized consumers' needs and taken the search engine to a new level. Ground breaking automatic transcription technology, which transcribes content straight from the cable box on the fly or from video already stored on the web, together with advanced phonetic matching speech recognition technology, automate the process of searching TV clips for the first time," said blinkx founder Suranga Chandratillake. "After launching the world's first Smart Folders and Implicit Query just weeks ago, we're pleased to be bringing even more innovative functionality to our growing user base."
Video Smart Folders enable users to create intelligent folders that continuously populate themselves with multi-media content, based on the parameters set by the user. The result is that users have on demand access to relevant content. Each Video Smart Folder contains content from multiple sources that is specifically relevant to each individual, and acts as a persistent query. If you want to be notified when a news flash becomes available on the latest developments regarding the suspended Indiana Pacers players following their brawl with Detroit Pistons' fans, you can customize a search that will automatically download high quality video to your computer.
"Today's consumers deserve an easier way of finding multimedia online," says blinkx CEO, Mark Opzoomer. "Rich media, like video, is the next step in the evolution of search from Web, to desktop, to living room. Using smart, contextual search, blinkx links users to relevant clips anywhere in the video stream, delivering video content straight from the television to the consumer's PC."
