Feedburner is another way to get noticed in the blogging and blogcast world. THe site is a provider of media distribution and audience engagement service for blogs and RSS feeds ... some big names on there and looks like a big social network.
Floola is an ipod manager which needs no installation, i.e. it can run straight from your ipod, it runs over Linux, Windows and OSX, it has many features such as playlists, lyrics support, podcasts, notes, copy and artwork, oh and plus video too.
Want to know the best bit ---- its Freeware.
I have been using Anapod Explorer for a while now and really like it a lot but there is no Linux version, so I can't jump between work and home PCs at the moment ..... Floola may be a work around....
SpotBack is a personalized news WEB site which, like MANY other personalized news WEB sites, lets you trawl through the news in areas of interest to you. You can set up news alerts to an email account filtered by key tags as well but what seems cool is the ability to follow music news, which if they have any mp3 links attached to will play for you. Nice idea.
It looks as though the BBC will continue their listen again radio service, where you can hear radio shows up to 7 days after they air, with an on demand Internet TV service for ALL BBC TV shows. A select number of shows have been available online for a while now, but this promises to be much, much bigger.
Channel 4 (also in the UK) tried something similar but a lot of their content was not free, so you would have been just as well to record the show yourself, BBC however say that their content will be free although you will only be able to download a show up to 7 days after it has been on and then only store it on your HDD for up to 30days.
They are calling it iPlayer and a final decision on the service will be made before May 2nd 2007 after public consultation.
