Here's a product announcement/press release that most of you will find interesting:

Searching for information is the biggest activity on the Internet. An increasing number of web sites
use Macromedia Flash movies to deliver animated content. Until now, there has been no way for web
site visitors to search for information in a Flash movie.

Imagio Technology has solved this problem with their new search solution called FlashSeek. Visitors
can search for words in Flash movies quickly and easily. FlashSeek is easily integrated into existing
search facilities. This brings valuable benefits to web sites using Flash by improving the usability of a
web site and reducing the frustration people can feel when looking for information.

Based on Microsoft IFilter and Macromedia technology, FlashSeek allows people to find information
in Flash movies. FlashSeek is compatible with the Microsoft Index Server product supplied with
Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP. It searches the contents of Macromedia Flash 3, 4, 5
and 6 files.

FlashSeek creates a search index of all the text in every Flash movie on a web site. Visitors find
movies using simple keyword queries such as Big Apple; Boolean queries like York AND NOT
New or other complex pattern matching queries.


Speaking about FlashSeek, Glen Keedy, Imagios Development Director said, Flash has always been
a great medium for building visually compelling web content but until now it has been extremely
difficult to search for information inside Flash movies. FlashSeek changes all that by allowing users to
search Flash web sites and quickly locate relevant content.

Individual licenses are available via electronic software delivery from the FlashSeek web site for
£149. For more information about FlashSeek including access to a live demonstration, please contact:
