Videoblogging Made Simple? Magnify.net has Plug-in For Movable Type and WordPress

Magnify.net, the New York-based start-up which organizes video collections around specific interests on customized Web pages, has new plug-ins that will allow bloggers using Movable Type and WordPress to insert customized video directly into a blog post.

Steve Rosenbaum the CEO says that the search and discovery technology of Magnify.net will easily curate relevant videos from multiple video sharing services.

Today the company is planning to announce plug-ins.

This seems like a cool idea as blogging becomes video-rich. Whether bloggers will rely on an automated process or search for themselves remains to be seen.

I caught with Steve at Digital Hollywood last week where he explained the development.

Here's an early review from TechCrunch and one from Mashable
