MySpaceTV: Now With RSS

Call it a small victory in the effort to make RSS more mainstream: MySpaceTV has implemented RSS feeds for all of its charts and channels. This means that if you want to get updates on popular videos about animals, or the top rated videos about “weird stuff,” you can now do so in your RSS reader of choice.

It’s a pretty simple implementation that still implies that a user knows what the orange RSS icon means, and something that MySpaceTV’s biggest competitor YouTube has had available for some time. What would be nice to see are the “add to Google Reader,” “add to Bloglines,” type links that are ever-present on blogs, where it’s at least a bit more obvious as to what the purpose of RSS might be.

In any event, kudos to MySpaceTV for getting on the RSS bandwagon
