Mefeedia Adds News Video Search

Prior to today, Mefeedia was already showing itself to be an ambitious project. We mentioned earlier this year that the media aggregation startup was getting content from some 15,000 video sources. Now the service is expanding its categorical reach with the launch of a search feature specific to news stories.

Want business, politics, global events or technology news videos? Mefeedia finds clips from a variety producers, including some big-name sources like MSNBC, CNN, FOX, The New York Times, Associated Press, CNET, BusinessWeek, Beet.TV, and TMZ. And Mefeedia users of course have choice as to how they fetch content. Users can get their visual fill both through the Mefeedia website and via RSS feeds fitted to content preferences.

The addition of search tools on Mefeedia to sift some 500 news sources for content of current value is certainly a sensible one, as more and more Web users seek video news to complement or even replace text. And as more premium broadcasters find it in their respective interests to maintain ever larger archives of material online, Mefeedia is able to accelerate viewers’ ability to consume relevant content from multiple sources, providing a convenience that has so far proven quite attractive already.
