Truveo Video Search to be Added to SFGate.com
AOL's Truveo video search has been added to SFGate.com, the online site of the San Francisco Chronicle. The search is currently implemented on the cars section with additional pages in the pipeline. SFGate.com sees 12 million unique visitors per month.
“We're delighted that SFGate.com has taken advantage of our technologies to give their readers a great video search experience,” said Pete Kocks, President of Truveo and Vice President of AOL. “With users expecting a far richer experience on every site they visit, video has become a critical part of the news experience and is a great way to keep users engaged.”
AOL acquired Truveo in 2006. This past September, they released the beta version of their video search.

Note that Truveo launched it's Open Video Search API in 2006.
This is what SFGate.com integrated on their site.
The September 2008 Launch you are referring to was for our Mobile (WAP) Video Search Product.
