The Washington Post plans to make its multimedia Internet content easier to search after signing an agreement with blinkx to index hundreds of hours of breaking news stories and extensive original content from washingtonpost.com automatically and make them fully searchable online. The search and retrieval company uses advanced speech recognition technology to index and transcribe video automatically making search rapid and efficient. In addition, blinkx' index capabilities allow users to find the exact story they are interested in and jump inside the video to the precise point they are seeking.
A pioneer in video search, the Web site is adding thousands of hours of video content to its index every week. It offers more than a million hours of sports, news and entertainment programming.
