blinkx, which touts itself as the “world’s largest and most advanced video search engine,” launched mobile API, giving developers of mobile applications and sites access to blinkx’s index of MP4 video.
We’ve already talked about blinkx in the past. If you’ve missed that article, you should know their mobile video index includes millions of clips from top tier content partners such as the Associated Press, CelebTV, Howcast and Lonely Planet. In total, blinkx has signed more than 720 partners and indexed over 35 million hours of video and audio content to date.
By opening an API to third party developers, the company has the opportunity to increase its distribution footprint and drive more searches through its engine. Mobile developers, on the other hand, can access to a wide variety of mobile-ready videos from top broadcasters and media companies.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
