Ask Jeeves Gets Multimedia Search

Ask Jeeves ( http://www.ask.com ) has hooked up with StreamSearch to allow for multimedia searching at Ask Jeeves. StreamSearch claims a multimedia database of over 2 million streaming and downloadable audio and video files which will be available now at Ask Jeeves. Note that it's "if multimedia-related questions are asked."

The materials are down at the bottom under "other search engines." The question "Where can I get a picture of a giraffe?" brought from StreamSearch, strangely enough, several audio clips. Going from giraffes to the song "Can I Get A Witness" is a bit of a stretch but hey, searching on Ask Jeeves is sometimes surreal anyway. Get the press release on this new alliance at
