Seattle, Aug. 26 - Delve Networks announced today that it has inked a partnership
with PLYmedia to integrate interactive video products into its proprietary semantic
web video platform. Coupled with Delve's revolutionary platform, which allows users

the core of Delve's ethos," said Alex Castro, CEO of Delve Networks. "By partnering
with PLYmedia, Delve has joined forces with a company that is just as dedicated
to introducing a new level of interactivity and user experience to web video."

and information retrieval technology to enable users to search within a hosted video
file to find the desired content. For content publishers, the Delve Networks platform
offers an easily managed interface, along with the necessary administrative and
analytic tools.
"It is very refreshing to partner with a video platform that shares in PLYmedia's
belief that web video can be a personal and enriched experience," said Yoni Silberberg,
head of business development and co-founder of PLYmedia. "With its innovative technology
and focus on user engagement, Delve Networks is the ideal partner for PLYmedia's
