Gosh, all those tech companies warring over patents - and yet none of them seem remotely interested in Blinkx or the video search patents they have (a lot of their tech is built on Autonomy patents, but I believe I'm correct in saying they have some of their own too)...
I've asked it before and I'll ask it again: if Blinkx technology is as great as the company's management would have us believe:
