To date, Blinkx has no revenue.
But the company is testing different ways of generating advertising with its desktop search software. Another possibility, Chandratillake says, is to receive payments from content producers such as CNN whenever Blinkx searchers go to subscription-only video clips.
In the meantime, Blinkx and its 28 employees are surviving on a $10 million investment from six wealthy angel investors. The company has several announcements planned for this month, including a partnership with a “big” unnamed company.
