Media Metrics - RSS Feeds Now Available
A new build is up and running - it features quite a few changes (thanks for the feedback). The biggest feature enhancement is the addition of RSS feeds for both comments and charts. Why create a YouTube comment feed you ask? YouTube and Grouper don't offer one themselves (Revver doesn't support comments at the moment). Adding both the Chart and Comment feeds to your aggregator makes tracking your media posts easy and straightforward. (In case you missed the previous entries on media metrics: Part One and Part Two)
Feeds
1. Chart feed - provides all five charts in a single feed. To add the feed to your aggregator, use the following URL:
http://www.davehodson.com/cm/chartfeed?URL=[URL]
where [URL] is the full URL of the media. For example, the RSS Chart feed for "Home" would look like this:
http://www.davehodson.com/cm/chartfeed/?URL=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nZQOKGXhlk
This will redirect to the actual feed - simply add this feed to your aggregator (One click for me with Bloglines and Firefox)
2. Comment feed - provides a true comment feed. To add the feed to your aggregator, point to the following URL:
http://www.davehodson.com/cm/commentfeed?URL=[URL]
For example, the RSS Comment feed for "Home" would look like this:
http://www.davehodson.com/cm/commentfeed/?URL=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nZQOKGXhlk
This will redirect to the actual feed - add it to your aggregator.
Here's a quick rundown of what is available for each service.
