Full Streams Ahead: Clicker’s TV Search Engine Is Now Open To The Public

Clicker , the startup that looks to be a comprehensive video search engine for television content on the web, has launched to the public. The site made its public debut at TechCrunch50, where it generated quite a bit of positive buzz, and has gradually ramped up its private beta over the last couple months. I spoke with Clicker CEO Jim Lanzone (formerly CEO of Ask.com), who says that the site's beta was actually shorter than expected, in part because intital feedback has been quite positive. Since appearing at TechCrunch50, Clicker has added 33% more content to its database, growing from an index of 300,000 up to 400,000 full length episodes. These 400,000 episodes come from over 7,000 different shows across 1,200 content sources around the web.
