Link to AOL Video Now Found On Google Video Home Page

Search Briefs
+ Coming Soon: AOL Plans Broadband Search Service (via News.com) & Link to AOL Video Now Found On Google Video Home Page
Federated or meta search from AOL? From the article, "[AOL's CEO Jonathan] Miller did not provide details beyond saying that the new search function would involve multiple sources and load quickly." Of course, AOL's web database is powered or as they say "enhanced" by Google. The AOL/Google deal was renewed last December. Speaking of AOL and Google, have you noticed the direct link (upper right in the gray bar) to AOL's Video Search engine on the Google Video home page? Not at all a surprise. When the AOL/Google deal was announced we learned that part of it would include video. Specifically, the news release read, "collaborating in video search and showcasing AOL's premium video service within Google Video." It looks like this is it or at least the beginning. One wonders if the Google Video and AOL Video databases will one day merge into one and/or will negotiating for video content become a joint effort between both organizations?

Click to view the article The fallacy of information overload
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

A lot of the talk around social media in the last year has been around information overload. Social media has provided us with new and exciting ways to create content. But it has also meant learning new ways to manage and engage with social media tools. Are we teetering on the edge of an information overload precipice?


Click to view the article Information overload: fact, fantasy or filter failure?
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

Information overload is a figment of your imagination. Or a failure of your filter. Or a symptom of your technological submissiveness. Depends on who you ask.


Click to view the article Newsdesk: tracking millions of pieces of information a day
Tuesday, 22nd May 2012

What if you had to sort through 3.5 million articles and social media posts a day and try to pull out the most relevant items for your organisation? What if you then had to cobble it all together into something readable for your top groups and executives in your organisation?
