New improved Truveo from AOL

The all-new Truveo.com has been unveiled by AOL in an effort to let consumers find a range of videos from across the web. The new site, based on the Truveo video search technology that AOL acquired in 2006, is currently available beginning today at www.truveo.com.

The videos range from user-generated video clips, to professionally produced videos from leading media brands. On the new improved Truveo.com, consumers can search and browse through videos from sources across the internet. Besides, Truveo.com facilitates video-specific algorithms to help users search and find the video they want.

According to the report, Truveo’s search results are organized by category and by source so that users can choose the video they want from the large number of videos that may match their query. Providing a browse-and-discover experience, Truveo users can also browse video by a particular category and find videos
that are available for free and those on sale. Users can also survey the Web’s most popular videos as well as peruse popular TV shows, popular video sites (called channels), and favorite videos selected by other users.

Making it an improved feature, AOL has made Truveo very user-friendly so that any consumer can save and share links to favorite videos, receive personalized video recommendations based on their preferences, configure custom video searches that can be placed into RSS readers and personalized Web pages, access a set of open APIs, and submit their own video into the Truveo search engine.
