A Feed Is Born

Google video with RSS

by Vincent on March 12th, 2006

An interesting post in the Google Groups has announced an alpha release of RSS feeds on Google Video!
This is the first release of RSS feeds on Google Video and they would like to receive feedback on the implementation. Specifically, they would like to make sure that all is standards-compliant and works well in a variety of RSS readers. They’re also are interested in feedback regarding additional information that would be useful to include in the feeds.

The RSS feature is not yet linked on Google video, so to access it you’ll need to use the links below.
To access a feed of popular videos, go to
http://video.google.com/videofeed?type=popular&num=20&output=rss
To access a feed of any search results page, go to
http://video.google.com/videofeed?type=search&q=type%3Agpick&num=20&o…
In both cases, the “num” parameter can take any value from 1 to 100.
In the case of search, the “q” parameter is the search query, and so can be anything you might see in a Google Video search URL. Furthermore, any other parameters that are accepted by Google Video search (e.g. for sort order) can be used here.
