The first radio show!

I finally got around to producing a new show. I did the show at a local Starbucks… and occasionally you will hear the darn espresso machine steaming milk… but all in all it’s not that bad. It is a lot better then staying home and listening to the construction crew with jack hammers!.

So here it is… enjoy.

PS: I don’t have RSS 2.0 enclosures in my version of WordPress, so you’ll need to just download direct from the blog.

UPDATE: I’ve gone ahead and modified the RSS feed to support enclosures. It’s a definite kludge at this point because WordPress doesn’t have RSS 2.0 enclosure support. If you’d like to receive the show automatically don’t forget to download a version of iPodder for your platform and subscribe to my feed.

Sept. 21st – AAC format

Dailysource for GSM

As I’ve started to explore the edges of syndication and enclosures it became apparent that we need to look at the transient nature of the masses. So I have started to explore concepts that include an extension to iPodder that will SMS a message and bookmark to my Nokia 3650 when a new show appears in an RSS feed. The significance of this is of course that if I’m on the road and can’t actually sync a new show with my iPod, I can revert to a lower quality device for the same content. In this case a converted alternative 3GP file of the show that is being processed by a folder action in OSX and then placed on a publicly addressable server. I then can listen to the show on my 3650 using the embedded Real Helix player.

Adam might not appreciate the quality of the audio since its been significantly down-sampled but it does allow me to access content when and where I deem it necessary. I love my iPod but until it has the ability to access the network as a standalone device (Apple are you listening? Bluetooth to my GPRS/EDGE/3G data network) I want the ability to choose an alternative device.

I’ve included a version of a random DailySource with Adam Curry in 3GP so that you can check it out.

Thoughts?
