More RSS Feeds

July 26, 2006

Good news in the way of RSS.  We have some additional feeds for your aggregating pleasure.  First thing to note is on the most voted page we are now allowing you to see most voted videos by today, this week, this month or ever.  And to go along with that you can also subscribe to any of the feeds for the most voted of today, this week, this month or ever (via feedster).  If you were subscribed to the original most voted feed then you will now be seeing the days most popular videos.

Also a word out to the video providers, please please please start providing some valuable rss feeds of your content.  Most importantly a most popular/featured which changes more than once a year and some facility to do a tag search.  We won’t name any names but you know who you are.  :)

Hopefully in the days/weeks to come we’ll be working on getting the actual video as an enclosure in the feed.  So stayed tuned here for the latest.

Mashable writes about the new European launch.

Google Video still lags YouTube for a number of reasons, but I think the core problem was its early failure to tap into the prime demographic: the 15-25 year old MySpace user.
Another reason i’d like to point out is that YouTube provides far superior RSS feeds than Google and for that matter any other provider I’ve encountered.  And in our opinion, this is so critical in these types of sites.  We’re planning more features for TVA but it makes it difficult when so many providers do not provide RSS Feeds.  GO YOUTUBE!

So now for our popular feed we are pulling in videos from Google Video, YouTube, iFilm and now Grouper!

With a little work we've been able to create RSS feeds for you favorite reader.  We are currently supporting three of them.  Most Voted, Most Commented and Most Recent.

Enjoy and thanks for all the feedback!
