Popular Video Section Update

Filed under: Video, Google Video, iFilm, rss, TheVideoAwards, Grouper — Dave @ 8:12 pm

One additional update for the popular video section.  We’ve updated the rss feed for both Grouper and iFilm to pull a more frequently changing popular list.  Unfortunately, Google is still only providing RSS for the top 100 which rarely changes.

More RSS Feeds

Filed under: Video, rss, TheVideoAwards, feedster — info @ 5:52 am

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.

Google Video New Launch and the Lack of RSS!

Filed under: Video, YouTube, Google Video, rss, TheVideoAwards, Mashable — info @ 12:10 am

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!
