Search for video
Google and a new service Blinkx have both launched sites dedicated to searching video and audio on the web. Blinkx has speech recognition technology that transcribes part of the clips so that you know what you are downloading. The nice thing is that a blog with a video clip or a radio feature can be lined up along side the BBC or CNN. The web is a great leveler. Perhaps one day a blog will start to challenge the traditional broadcasters for attention, just as some blogs orientated on advertising revenue are making inroads into the publishing industry.
