We vloggers have known for some time that providing RSS feeds of our posts is key to building an audience.
How interesting it is to find that at least one television network is embracing RSS in a big way to build audiences.
NewsGator has just announced an agreement with nbbc, the NBC-owned distribution/advertiser network of video clips.
