ClipBlast! Expands Automated Web Video Indexing System, Developed to Build World’s Largest Index of Video Online

iHollywood Search and Media 2007

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Amid explosive growth of the Video Web, ClipBlast! (www.clipblast.com), the premier Web-wide video search and navigation platform, today announced that it has expanded its automated web video indexing system, created to build the world’s largest index of video online.

ClipBlast! made the announcement at Search and Media (www.searchandmediaconference.com), iHollywood Forum’s conference on media, entertainment and search engines. ClipBlast! is a bronze sponsor, and Gary Baker, ClipBlast! founder and CEO, is speaking as part of the “TV & Video Search – The Killer Application” panel on July 19.

The ClipBlast! Web Video Indexing System automatically recognizes content providers, accurately parsing new video metadata – published data from video provider and multiple other sources, speech-to-text translation, closed captioning, images, and the like – thereby creating the world’s largest index for video search.

“The Video Web is growing so rapidly that unprecedented levels of intelligent automation are absolutely essential to organizing it all,” Baker said. “We expect literally tens of millions of new clips to come online over the next 60-90 days. ClipBlast!’s expanded system automatically crawls the web to detect discreet video, video content providers and video feeds. And we see demand for online video only increasing – exponentially.”

ClipBlast!’s Video Navigator™ interface is the first Web video technology engineered according to how people actually interact with video online, helping viewers browse, search and personalize the video they want, when they want it.

ClipBlast!’s patent-pending processes and technology continuously crawl the Video Web. As a result, ClipBlast! indexes more content providers than any other video search engine.
