Just a quick podcast to say Howdy (or is that Aloha?) after returning to Calgary. This was supposed to be a very brief Hello podcast, but turned into a 14-minute ramble about the 3 weeks away from the office.
Trying out the new “Podcast” AAC export in iTunes (actually, I tweaked it a bit to make the file even smaller). If anyone misses MP3 format, let me know.
Brief outline:
- Talk about iTunes podcasting support
- I’m listed on the iTunes podcast directory – no idea how I got there, but it’s kinda cool… guess I should podcast a bit more…
- Talk about EarthCore
- Talk about WWDC2005
- Talk about NMC2005/Honolulu
Update: Woah. Sorry about the level shift from the intro to the main audio. That sucks. I’ll redo the intro when I get a chance. In the meantime, get ready to turn the volume down after the funky bassline ends…
Nice.. although I’m living in the states, and the link you gave didn’t work in the US store.. (I get a “The item you’ve requested is not currently available in the US store”).
I did find it in the US store though, so you’re not limited to just Canada thank goodness.
Yeah. It’s bizarre – the link worked when I made it, but it’s borked now. I’m guessing they’re revamping something… If you do a podcast search for “D’Arcy” it show up, or browse to “Technology” and view all podcasts…
*I* miss the mp3 version – I don’t listen on an iPod, and since I almost never listen at the base station I keep forgetting that there’s even unlistened-to content from you, so I have yet to listen.
ah. duly noted… any new ones will be .mp3
I don’t have a colour iPod so won’t be playing with the chapter stuff for a while anyway.
So, why in hell don’t other vendors support MPEG4 audio (AAC) on their players??? It’s not an Apple format – it’s THE open standard, coincidentally implemented by Apple.
