this just about sums it up...

This from a poster on one of the Blinkx threads on ADVFN

I think everyones tired of the manipulation by the mm's , blinkx need to start treating the shareholders with some respect , ie ,, they need to inform at the correct times whats happening and not just releasing rns's here and there .

they should say exactly what their transhijacking plans are ,,( they did say last year it was ready to launch ,and a year on we still have no clue whats happening )

what was it they bought from zango ??? 
mobile phones etc,
blinkxtv needs to be marketed as does the movie and music sites ...

... I personally think a opportunist bid will come soon enough ,so long as its above 80p then the one and half years I've held blinkx has been worth it ,only 'cos of averaging down ... (18p approx')
obviously I want more , but blinkx seem to be losing their potential of growing big.they're holding back info', whereas they should be promoting themselves ..
eg they should promote nowthen ,etc ...."

I think it hits the nail right on the head. Blinkx has a CEO who seems happy to compete for gongs and industry awards, but doesn't have enough faith in his own company to ever have actually bought any shares in it, and who seems blissfully unaware of the company's weak (and weakening) share price. Hopefully a bid will come in at something north of the IPO price of 45p and Blinkx's extremely long-suffering shareholders can sell up and move on. Because at the moment it seems very much as though Blinkx and its management is losing the plot...

"Chandratillake says it could be profitable today, but has focused on spending for growth." I wonder if the figures on Tuesday will demonstrate that? For the sake of Chandratillake's credibility I certainly hope so...
