The Stanford Entrepreneurship Corner (aka E-Corner) just launched a Cooliris Wall on their site! This integration has us very excited because not only do all of us feel passionate about entrepreneurship and innovation, many of us know Stanford as our alma mater, myself included.

The E-Corner is part of the Stanford Technology Ventures Program, an entrepreneurship education and research center located within the School of Engineering at Stanford University. The website has tons of great podcasts and videos of lectures and talks from some of today’s brightest Entrepreneurial Thought Leaders. And, if you look for it, there is one video of Soujanya, our CEO, Austin, our CTO, and Josh, our co-founder speaking at Stanford!

This is a great place for budding entrepreneurs looking to learn more about entrepreneurship, so go and check out some of the great talks and resources this website has to offer.

We’re excited to announce a new partnership that will be of particular interest to our international users!

sevenload, the social media platform for photos, videos, and interactive shows, has integrated Cooliris into every single one of their pages. This means that you can now enjoy their great media content in the Cooliris 3D Wall simply by launching Cooliris from the toolbar icon.

There’s another pretty awesome implementation within sevenload involving our Embed Wall. If you do any search in sevenload (like this search for videos about the Guinness World Records), you can check the “slideshow Cooliris” checkbox in the upper right of the search results. This transforms the search results into an Embed Wall that allows you to preview all of the media. Pretty nifty.

We’re always excited about premium sites like sevenload using Cooliris to display their extensive content. But if you’ve got a personal website that you’d like to enable or put an Embed Wall onto, you can do so as well by following the simple steps at http://developer.cooliris.com.

sevenload joins a number of other Cooliris-integrated sites like Funny or Die, Life.com, BigPond News, and Les Mads.

PRESS RELEASE

July 16, Palo Alto, CA — Whether you are a publisher, an advertiser, or just a fan of the next-generation Web, you might be interested in today’s announcement of the Cooliris Publisher Network, a brand new way of online advertising that launched in conjunction with the Infiniti G Convertible ad campaign. The campaign is being run across multiple sites including Yahoo! News, Golf.com, the New York Magazine, and Style.com.

Teaming up with OMD, media giant and ag ency of record for Infiniti, Cooliris has created an innovative solution that allows publishers to present rich media advertising on a streaming, infinite 3D Wall of content. Compared to traditional HTML interfaces, the Cooliris solution boasts a 4-fold increase in content selection and up to 12.5 times increase in overall content consumption.

“The partnership between Infiniti and Cooliris has helped bring about a new media paradigm, in which creative and media teams partner with publisher and technology teams to bring about a new, better user experience for the digital space using the most advanced display technology currently available,” said Ben Poore, Vice President, Infiniti. “We are excited that this collaboration creates targeted and engaging solutions for delivering Infiniti’s brand messaging to consumers.”

The Publisher Network leverages the Cooliris Embed Wall, an embeddable Adobe Flash-based version the popular Cooliris browser plugin that provides a faster way to browse photos and videos by displaying content on an infinitely scrollable 3D Wall. Premium publishers can now post the Cooliris experience directly into their websites, drive more views and engagement of their content, while also gaining supplemental revenue opportunities with well-known brands.

OMD accelerates the adoption of this cutting-edge technology among key publishers with its Infiniti campaign, where their ads are displayed unobtrusively across a block of up to ninestunning image tiles within the Cooliris 3D Wall embedded across multiple publisher sites and the Cooliris browser application.

Publishers such as the Wall Street Journal website have used the Embed Wall to showcase large galleries of photos. The Regis & Kelly website has also leveraged this technology to run contests and programs. Now, through participation in the Cooliris Publisher Network, publishers are combining the interactivity of a 3D Wall of their media content with brand advertising.

Over 8000 websites now use the Cooliris Embed Wall.  Although only publishers and brands participating in the Cooliris Publisher Network are able to place ads in the Embed Wall, owners of any website, big or small, can still embed the Cooliris 3D Wall (without advertising) on their site by visiting http://developer.cooliris.com.
