PIXSY Vs. VeZoom Online Search Heats up
by alansherin August 6, 2007 3:10 PM PDT
Pixsy meet VeZoom. We don't know eachother but I am sure we will shortly. We like what you offer. Check out our latest Online Video Toy called MyVeZoom.

We invite you to visit myVeZoom (http://www.vezoom.com/myVeZoom.htm), and test drive the new myVeZoom engine before we announce it to the general public next week. In test trials the response has been extremely positive. The myVeZoom personal video engine saves users the daily hassle of trying to find what online video interests them. Your myVeZoom page becomes a custom tailored video channels experience that updates dynamically. You can even create your own channel on the fly by entering a keyword. Instantly your channel is generated right before your eyes. MyVeZoom is YOUR video WHEN and WHERE you want it. Once set-up, myVeZoom becomes one-stop access to see your video favorites without searching.

Currently myVeZoom offers over 60 online video channels. The usual suspects are here; YouTube, CNN, ESPN, Yahoo! and Google as well as some more obscure video sites such as Stupid Video, Video Spotter, and AniBoom. Users select the channels from a list of available category options, and then personalize the layout of the page by dragging and dropping their favorites into position. MyVeZoom continuously monitors over 18 million hours of online video for videos of relevance, providing new content for the user based on their favorite selected channels.

Some may find it a great idea, but when you find your images that are All Rights Reserved i.e.

You may NOT COPY, DISTRIBUTE, DISPLAY or perform the work, make derivative works, make commercial use of the work for any purpose WITHOUT PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT from the author.

On the site and also listed as Free Stock Photographs, then it becomes just another site scraping the web for to line its pockets.

There is a discussion on the Fotothing boards about this at the moment.

It also seems there email contact addresses are active ATM.
