YouTube Syndication

YouTube Logo

YouTube automatically generates a number of RSS feeds. A couple of custom feeds I find terrible useful are user and tag.

Tags:
For example, if you wanted to create an RSS feed for the tag “monkey,” you would enter: feed://www.youtube.com/rss/tag/monkey.rss

Users:
feed://www.youtube.com/rss/user/[insert username here]/videos.rss
For example, if you wanted to create an RSS feed for the user “YouTube,” you would enter: feed://www.youtube.com/rss/user/youtube/videos.rss

Of course I used FeedBurner to burn my YouTube user feed. I have the feed syndicated on the side bar here at neptune.dilated.org.

Here is a link to a YouTube feed for the tag “neptuneslab”. The videos have no propigated to the feed at the time of this posting. Once I see the tag feed working I will burn it with FeedBurner.
