msnbc.com has just made available for the first time the embed code of all its video.  This marks the first time a major network news organization has provided clips which can be shared and used by anyone, much like YouTube.

We reported this development yesterday.  News of the activation of the embed code, which we expected was going to happen on Wednesday, was made a few moments ago on Alpha Channel, an msnbc.com blog. 

Here Brian Williams graces the home page of Beet.TV.  How cool is this.
