Bellevue, Washington - July 12, 2007 - The InfoSpace proprietary metasearch firm, has joined video search engine, blinkx, to offer video search capabilities for InfoSpace's brands, including the Dogpile.com search engine, which returns top results from Google, Yahoo!, Windows Live and Ask.com.

Brian McManus, Executive Vice President of the online business unit at InfoSpace explained, ''Video search has become increasingly popular among today's web searchers, and this addition allows us to offer Dogpile users a more visual and interactive search experience. blinkx is a leader in the video search space, and we chose them to power our offering because of their extensive video content library and advanced video search technology. blinkx also provides results from a variety of video aggregators such as Brightcove, which makes this partnership a great fit for Dogpile, as the leading metasearch site in the U.S.''

In addition to this newly added video search capability, InfoSpace recently unveiled a revamped Dogpile.com site with a refreshed look and feel, enhanced usability and an improved metasearch algorithm.
