Blinkx Share Chat (BLNX)

I couldn't agree more. There are, currently, three of us in our house and each evening the TV is on whilst each of us also browses, e-mails or socialises on smartphone, IPad and laptop. Meanwhile the remote is used to mute the TV each time the adverts comes on.

So, there are three of us only half paying attention to TV programmes and no attention at all (not even listening) to the TV ads. How much of the advertising spend is simply wasted on TV ads? It's not even a grapeshot approach anymore if TV users can totally blank the ads. As you say the future is mobile. Blinkx have cracked the problem of monetizing video search.....if they truly can crack mobile in the same way then the sound of cash cascading into the Blinkx coffers will be deafening.

Don't get me wrong, mobile's going to be huge, but not for the likes of people such as myself. This is all about the future. I am not the future, the younger people are, and I realize this.

My nephew is 19. He’ll be watching a television program while at the same time watching sports streaming on his smart phone. This has been going on for a few years now, and I know he's not an anomaly.

We all want big screen TVs for the home, but the mobile devices are where a lot of the future lies.

Good point on the screen size, the new Samsung's a monster, and agreed, especially for thsoe living in the sticks and away from the fibre optics cellular broadband has for many I reckon overtaken copper.

In my early 30s... I still rarely use video on my phone. Primarily due to limits, but when I do use them it tends to be the odd one or to share them with friends.

Screens are getting bigger now and those that want to pay 40 per month do get more or unlimited bandwidth and so I think people will use them more.

By the time 4G is standard (better than many home broadbands) and unlimited data is more common than not, that will be the real boom. I think its only 3 years or so away.

You young whipper snapper! I'm 65 and have no problems with short sight but I would not want to watch anything long form on my smartphone. The IPad on the other hand I could look at all day .......and indeed, according to my wife I all too often do.

I presume you noticed that they have Sushovan Hussain as an NED?

Big hedge fund name, and Buffett adviser. Will be interesting how this plays out as the stock was heading to 30p technically. Will bring huge attention.

I am a holder and have noticed a nice rise this morning, but Who is he ?

For those that follow Moni, Doug Kass just took a big stake.

I don't know how you, Boff, Pensioner, and all the other older people among us feel about this, but I am 57 years old and my eyes aren't what they used to be. I am not about to watch videos on a smartphone. Their screens simply are not big enough for me. This stuff is for younger people; at least that's my take on the matter.

I have three 23 inch monitors on my desk for my PC. Those I can see.
