Bangalore: Looking for a video on web but find it difficult to browse through the enormous content up there? Help is on the way. A new social video browser, Shufflr, developed by Althea Systems, blends learning algorithms and social graphs to steer videos towards you from all over the web. In simple words, it lets videos find you. It gives video recommendations, social video feeds, and trending video feeds.
With Shufflr, one can discover, view, share and collect videos from all over the web. Its video sieve sifts through millions of videos on the web and picks videos that are relevant to you based on your profile and viewing history. You can also see what your friends have been watching without them having to send you links to those videos.
There is a 'Buzz' feed on the right of the home screen that allows you to check out what is currently trending the web. Another benefit of Shufflr is that it reduces time that we spend around looking for videos on the web. It also has additional features of bookmarking, tagging and search. Apart from sharing videos, you can follow people with similar tastes and see what they have been watching.
"With online video disrupting traditional ways of consuming video, Shufflr is a neat transition from broadcast style video delivery to personalized video on demand. You have a convenient lean back model where videos come to you but with all the interactive, social functionality of today's web when you need it." says Vinod Gopinath, CEO of Althea Systems, the makers of Shufflr.
