[videoblogging] Yahoo! Video Search for vlog
Happy Friday everyone, Just saw a link in my referrer log from Yahoo! It lead me to the Yahoo! Video Search results page for a search for 'vlog' http://tinyurl.com/d56m7 or http://video.search.yahoo.com/search/video?_adv_prop=videoa mp;x=opei=UTF-8va=vlogfmt=mpegfmt=qt ;sz=alldur=allvst=0vm=p The interesting thing is that the Yahoo! results page allows you to play my video directly AND it uses frames to display the original source page. Just wanted to mention it in case you haven't seen how this works. --Steve -- Home Page - http://stevegarfield.com Video Blog - http://stevegarfield.blogs.com Text Blog - http://offonatangent.blogspot.com Like Paul Revere, leading the citizen's media revolution.

Very similar to Google's image search. I really like this approach. Of course they could just get rid of the top frame and link to the blog post without loosing much. - Andreas -- URL:http://www.solitude.dk/ Commentary on media, communication, culture and technology.

Re: [videoblogging] Yahoo! Video Search for vlog
I scrolled through the Yahoo Vlog search results. How do they find that content? A lot of well known vloggers weren't represented at all. There was a vlogger named "dooser" who seemed to have one to three vlogs on nearly every page. I noticed a lot of the files were very small. I wonder if you know how these search engines work? I didn't see a lot of your work their either.

I think they scrape a site called vlogdigest (or something like that:) On Dec 2, 2005, at 3:07 PM, Randolfe Wicker wrote: I wonder if you know how these search engines work?

I don't know if they only search feeds that use the Media RSS extension or not. - Andreas -- URL:http://www.solitude.dk/ Commentary on media, communication, culture and technology. Yahoo!

Re: [videoblogging] Yahoo! Video Search for vlog
Actually, all of their video search is (supposedly) powered/driven by Media RSS. I.e. no media-rss extension, no inclusion in their search. That's my understanding, at least (I was part of the group that defined it..) robert a/k/a r wrote: I think they scrape a site called vlogdigest (or something like that:) On Dec 2, 2005, at 3:07 PM, Randolfe Wicker wrote: I wonder if you know how these search engines work? -- Brad Webb, Director of Social Media Technology http://vslabs.vsocial.com/ vSocial | Custom One Media, LLC 51 W.
