AOL announced the addition of new RSS feeds from partners for its video search engine. The feeds will feature "optimized" video content including humor, news, technology, music, sports, and video games, available through AOL Video, AOL Search, and AOL partner Singingfish.

Other partners contributing feeds include Blastro.com, EVTV1.com, Forbes.com, GameTrailers.com, PC World and Time4 Media properties including Transworld Skateboarding, Transworld Snowboarding and Transworld Surf.

AOL says the new service is intended multimedia content more accessible to consumers while allowing content producers to control the video playback experience and helping to drive traffic back to their websites.

"We're thrilled to include these partners in our industry-leading AOL Video Search," said Kevin Conroy, Executive Vice President of AOL Media Networks. "With AOL Video Search, we are providing consumers with a faster, easier way to find the best videos on the Web."

AOL's database draws largely from its AOL Video-on-demand archive of over 18,000 originally produced and licensed video assets while Singingfish indexes over 1.5 million video assets.
