Hi Storminnorman1
OK found it - they are talking about the unsolicited bid for Moneysupermarket.com:
Moneysupermarket CEO rejects bid approach
23/07/2008
Moneysupermarket.com said its chief executive Simon Nixon, a 54% shareholder, has rejected an unsolicited takeover approach for the price comparison site.
"The board of the company notes the recent movement in its share price and confirms that an initial approach regarding a possible offer for the company was today made to Simon Nixon," the group said in a short statement.
"The unsolicited approach did not contain indicative terms for any offer and has been rejected by Mr Nixon," it added.
The read across is that this could also happen to Blinkx - just speculation at the moment.
The point about having to convince Fidelity is because they are a majorshareholder and not the only one:
Blinkx was spun out of Cambridge, UK-based enterprise search company Autonomy as its consumer play. Major shareholders include Fidelity, Autonomy, Dr. Michael Lynch, Capital Research and Management, F&C, Standard Life, Baillie Gifford, Oppenheimer Funds, and BlackRock. The startup was founded in 2004 by CEO Suranga Chandratillake. Autonomy founder Mike Lynch, a former Cambridge academic, holds on to 8.7% of Blinkx shares, with Autonomy holding 10%.
So just market chatter, I think, at this point.

Quote: 'As for raising head count; what is the point in having idle hands around the place when you can get computers to do a better job'.
Never seen a computer with any type of software loaded able to start a country office up from scratch! If this company is going to be the next big search success it will have to open offices in a number of countries. Each country is likely to require some bespoke work if only to support the language etc. Name any company trading in say 10+ countries with revenues above £50m and headcount less than 100.
Citi had access to the top brass at blnx prior to listing. Why did they have overheads climbing at a very high rate, matching revenues. Do we really think a new operating model has been used within weeks after the publication by Citi.

Maybe its because a lot of the code was developed by Aut! Otherwise we are talking about a very small number of good developers and one or two genius technical architects. I would like to know the answer.

Today 16:19DawnraidBabbler222.50No Opinion
Best post I seen - sums it all up.....either Blinkx is going to the stars or it's going to be bought out....MSFT using Blinkx, and not doing it itself? Blinkx is better than anything MSFt can do, it knows it, and it admits it.......Margueritas people, margueritas soon. Blinkx is going to make me stinking wealhty, IMHO.  Today 16:02Babbler2Microsoft meeting22.00No Opinion
Looks interesting: http://www.liveside.net/blogs/main/archive/2008/07/20/microsoft-global-exchange-ballmer-ozzie-rock.aspx Perhaps that is another indicator of why they are interested in BLNX - Testing the system with MSN first. They REALLY hate google!Today 15:59DawnraidNo bid for blnx - just22.00No Opinion
drawing parallels - uk internet search/price comparison site....Simon Nixon confirmed he was approached by unsolicited bidder - just goes to show that if there is a big holder of the stock they control whether the company is bought out or not, not small retail punters shares....so, read across to blinkx? If Fidelity is unwilling to sell at e.g. less than 100p, we will not even see these discussions affect the SP as they go on behind closed doors - so even if there was a willing bidder for Blinkx at e.g. 80p the share price could still bumble along at 20p as they need to convince Fidelity, or no point buying it in the market in tiny chunksToday 15:49westkeithblnx22.00No Opinion
does this look like a proper approach ? if so what affect will it have on sp if any?

The default setting for Blinkx is to search by relevance. Relevance and ranking are tools to make sure that no matter what the user types, the search hits are relevant. You can search by date if thats what you want but Blinkx is an aggregation engine so it will only collate media that is located on its syndicated sources.
The clever thing about Blinkx is that it doesn't just inded and crawl text from websites. During aggregation, the indexing engine will perform speech recognition to enable your search to be more relevant. It then combines this with analytics from the video, metadata from the sources, taxonony indexes based on subjects and uses ALL of that to make your search more accurate and relevant.
This is not new but doing it with Video from syndicated partner sources is.
If you dont believe me try typing uk ftse into Google and see what you get...
Apologies for ranting on about something I am passionate about.
Searching is old hat and yesterday - Blinkx is about Finding!

The site is a VIDEO search engine.
I put in 'uk ftse' and it came up with 628,000 items of all sorts.
Did you expect it to come up with a video of the realtime ftse prices or what?
If you then refine your search you may get what you want, if it is a realistic search.

Was looking at the news and watching the share price and thought i would give the website a go and see what all the fuss is about.
I was very disapointed, the search is really hit and miss i thought if i put in "uk ftse" i would get a stream of latest stock market news but its a right mess. I found it very hard to navigate and to actually understand what i am gaining from not just performing a search in google / you tube etc.
I would love for someone to explain to me exactly Blinx is trying to do better than the other players are?

You can only switch off a piece of code if it comes in as a distinct piece of XML or assembler code that is linked to so that you can dummy out the link. If it is embedded you cannot remove it without touching proprietery code and that is liable to make a mess of your internet connection.
Of course, there are plenty of products that stop pop-ups, malware etc. but that is not the same thing and any clever programmer can prevent a "hack" just as the hack was put in place in the first instance.
How do you think McAfee and others find viruses and then kill them? They dig into the code and find them and then remove them.
Takes a thief to catch a thief.

Last update: 6:01 a.m. EDT July 23, 2008
AUSTIN, TX, Jul 23, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- According to market statistics analyzed by S3 Matching Technologies, the SEC's emergency order to enhance investor protections against "naked" short selling in 17 financial institution securities has reduced short sells by about 70 percent for the targeted symbols, and 90 percent of short selling of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities. S3, which processes trades for the country's largest brokerages, compared short sells of Monday, July 14, prior to the SEC order, and Monday, July 21, the first day the emergency rule was implemented.
"Looking at the data from our clients," said Jack Holt, CEO of S3 Matching Technologies, "it seems clear the market responded to what regulators wanted. Short sells, 'naked' or not, have accounted for a little over 1 percent of our clients' total volume. 2/3rds of that short sell volume disappeared on the first day the rule went into effect. For Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, it's more dramatic at 90 percent."
The SEC's emergency rule identified symbols critical to stability of the financial markets and ordered that the securities be delivered at the time short sells were settled. According to S3's Holt, analysis of his company's data shows the emergency rule appears to have all but eliminated the short selling of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities, two institutions that many analysts feared were at risk of collapse.
"The short sell slowdown during the first day was very significant across the targeted symbols," Holt added. "While there is no way for data to reveal if a short sell is 'naked,' there's no doubt the SEC has put a rule in place that has drastically reduced short selling, especially with regards to the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac mortgage institutions."
S3 Matching Technologies processes about 15 billion financial transactions daily and provides business intelligence reports on more than a million securities trade orders and stock options.
