Dulles, Va. - Looking to ramp up its free content in an effort to draw visitors, AOL said on Monday that it will launch a beta version of its new video portal later this week. The sitewill allow visitors to find, watch and share videos from across the web. It will also feature 45 new video-on-demand content channels, free streaming content and the ability to download full-length content that can be viewed on multiple devices and PCs. AOL said the portal will include a video search tool, based on technology from Truveo and Singingfish, and a video player that can go full screen without losing picture quality. And, through a partnership with Intel, AOL said that it plans to release a new tool in the coming weeks that will allow users of some Intel-based PCs to view its video on large screen TVs and other devices. Time Warner is expected to unveil its new strategic direction for AOL during a conference call on Wednesday.
