SingingFish Says So Long, Now Redirects to AOL Video; Truveo Redirects to SearchVideo
The consolidation of sites after being acquired by a large player is not unexpected but still worth noting. Now multimedia search engine, SingingFish.com redirects to AOL Video Search.
When AOL relaunched their video search service in 2005, they included results from SingingFish. However, the SingingFish engine remained online as a separate site.
The Truveo site now redirects to SearchVideo (not to be confused with SearchforVideo) which is clearly labeled as an AOL service and is a simple yet effective interface that aggregates video content from numerous sites including:
+ MySpace
+ YouTube
+ Google Video
+ StreetFire.net
+ YoQoo
+ Grouper
+ Mofile
+ MSN Video
+ Revver
+ IFILM
and others.
