With the soaring popularity of YouTube and the consumer demand for video content, millions of videos reside online but remain undiscovered. Even knowing what to search for becomes a daunting task. Until now, a mechanism for immediately finding and watching personally relevant videos online has been non-existent. Stumble Video brings the simplicity of channel surfing to the web by automatically finding and presenting the best videos suited to user’s interests. In the end, it’s as if each user has their own personal video channel.
"People demand instant access to online video content that’s personally gratifying, and they don’t want to spend all day looking for it. That’s where StumbleUpon fits in," said David Feller, Vice President, Marketing at StumbleUpon. "Stumble Video allows people to discover great videos they would likely never find using traditional keyword searches. The experience is like channel surfing through video content that is laser-targeted to your tastes."
Stumble Video finds and presents personally relevant videos with no need for keyword searches, scrolling through screens, or additional downloads. Discover video clips, drawn from popular sites such as YouTube, with a single click. "Stumblers" rate online videos by clicking a "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" button. With each rating, Stumble Video better understands what types of videos users like (or dislike) and delivers video content best matched to their personal preferences.
"StumbleUpon has humanized the Web and mastered a way for people to discover online content by incorporating an individual’s personal preferences, and recommendations of friends and like-minded people," said Mitch Kapor, Lotus Development founder and an investor in StumbleUpon. "This year, there has been a huge increase in the number of video-focused sites. However, actually finding high quality, personally relevant online videos has been a challenge — Stumble Video debuts at a perfect time."
