These are great video feeds for technology insights.

What I’d like an improvement upon is tag/keyword search for other video feeds to include a filetype otpion for video e.g., in Google Reader’s keyword search if I type in “video Om Malik” I will get results that include any site that has the word “video” or “Om” which is a lot of not relevant hits.

If I were able to select a filetype for the results as video and then enter a search term like Om Malik I should be able to get back only video files which Om is either in or mentioned in.

There's a site, CavengerNews.com that does something like this, it incorporates audio, video and text news. In short, it looks like Megite and Tailrank were beaten to the punch.</p> Hmm…this is interesting.
