PodZinger also introduced ZingLinks, a set of features integrated into the player that allow users to easily and immediately share the videos that they are watching with their friends.

PodZinger provides users with an intuitive interface for quickly finding the content that they want by searching inside audio or video files for specific terms. The new player highlights those results within the player to see exactly where those terms were spoken and jump to just that section of the audio or video. With ZingLinks, users can choose from several ways to share their favorite content, including sending a link instantly via email, copying a link to IM to friends, or embedding a video directly onto their own site or blog.

In addition, PodZinger is offering a free search box for content creators and publishers to help drive more traffic to their content and engage with their audience. Any content creator that has registered with PodZinger can access this feature when they login. Once embedded on their site, the search box will enable their audience to search just their content, making it easy to find specific topics. The search box is available in several different sizes and creators can easily preview how it will look on their site before embedding it.

“Online video is all about finding the content that is of most interest to you and being able to easily view it and instantly share it,” said Barbara Loonam, PodZinger’s vice president of marketing. “As more and more web properties embrace video, it’s going to be critical for them to expand the user experience and keep them coming back to their site.
