New podcasts

While taking the survey on Software Engineering Radio I got noticed of a couple of other technical podcast so I have added IT Conversations and ARCast to my jsiPodFetch feed list.

Shrinking podcast backlog

My list of new shows in jsiPodFetch is getting very short. It will be empty before the weekend. So I need to find some new podcasts to subscribe to.

Currently I subscribe only to software related podcasts, but I might try to find something else now. I listen to podcasts mainly on my commute to/from work so it doesn’t really bother me that the current selection is a bit single minded. It would be nice to, occasionally, be mentally kicked in the *ss though.

jsiPodFetch 7.37

I just did a new release of jsiPodFetch.

Unless I get distracted by user reported errors the next release will include support for downloading media via BitTorrent.

CHANGE LOG
7.37

  • Fixed an error because of mismatch between the meta data and the file system that could happen if a user for some reason killed the process in the wrong millisecond.
  • Added call in uninstaller to remove jsiPodFetch related data
  • Added -uninstall as a commandline argument to remove all jsiPodFetch related data. (To be used by the uninstaller.)
  • Fixed a bug that left done files on the player.
  • Now detects when a USB device is added or removed and does a refresh automatically.

Official release of jsiPodFetch

At last I have released a beta of jsiPodFetch:

Make it easier to listen to podcasts with your phone or media player.

jsiPodFetch will download the audio files from your podcast RSS feeds and create a playlist for optimal listening order.

Downloaded media is stored on your PC until you mark them as done.

jsiPodFetch is in beta and can be downloaded here.

More information and documentation will be provided shortly.

jsiPodFetch is freeware now, but please take a look at my advertisers to support the future development.

My list of podcasts June 2007

Instead of reading to occupy the time when I do my commute I have started to listen to some podcasts. It took of last fall when I set out to listen to all the DotNetRocks episodes. When I had almost cached up I started looking for other podcasts worthy of my time and here is my current list:
