blinkx upgrades its blinkx Remote for finding and watching TV episodes on the Web. With blinkx Remote, users can search for their favorite TV shows from any network or provider with online content, including ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX and more, all through a single gateway.

Over the past six months, the volume of long-form television content available on the Internet has exploded as more and more media companies capitalize on the potential of online distribution. While consumers have benefited tremendously from increased access to and availability of their favorite TV shows, the proliferation and fragmentation of this content across multiple sites present a navigation challenge.

blinkx Remote aggregates information and access to full-length television programs on the Web, offering audiences a one-stop-shop for finding TV shows by season, episode, title, network or genre, both quickly and legally.

Leveraging blinkx’s patented video search technology, blinkx Remote filters out video spam, illegal clips, and inappropriate material that has been falsely tagged, to deliver the highest quality user experience. Audiences will find only full-length, legally available, episodes of their favorite TV programs through blinkx Remote, and will be able to sign up to receive alerts when a new show is posted through RSS or e-mail.

blinkx Remote will be available for U.S. audiences at www.tv.blinkx.com commencing August 13th, 2008.
