Video Search engine Pixsy expects to announce Thursday it has inked deals with eZanga, GenieKnows.com, IceRocket, EgoTVOnline and GossipGirls. The five distribution partners will rely on the San Francisco-based company's Video Search Playback (VSP) platform to offer consumers a network of content.

Pixsy's VSP platform gives the Web sites access to the Pixsy Video Index. Videos can be searched and embedded into any Web site, providing a source of targeted content for users to search and view.

Web sites benefit from adding a significant source of new video content to their sites with targeted metadata that drives increased page views and new advertising opportunities, according to Pixsy CEO Chase Norlin.--Laurie Sullivan
