Fresh Podcasts > launch: open podcast directory

[nonsmokingarea.com] as reported, Dave Winer has startet a free and independent podcast-directory at podcasting.opml.org. everybody is welcome to contribute branches to the directory by collecting podcast-feeds in opml-files (the outline processor markup language allows to describe feed-lists in a standardized way - Dave Winer’s OPML-Editor is a great Windows/Mac-tool to write opml).

http://scripting.wordpress.com  Scripting News Annex: While I’m figuring out the first cut at the top level of the new podcasting directory, I’ve started a section called New branches, to accumulate a small sampling of sections that I think may fit into the directory. I’m qualifying everything because I’m seeing some OPML files that are so large they couldn’t possibly fit in a corner of this directory. (via Cosmos)

Scripting News: 7/23/2006http://www.scripting.com  Scripting News: 7/23/2006: Okay, here's a feature I want to implement, to connect directory pages with a page on the wiki. I want to generate a URL into the wiki, and then when someone clicks on it, and the page doesn't exist, the wiki offers to create it for you. (via Cosmos)

BizPodcasting - Corporate and business podcasting: There is an absolute plethora of companies out there that will offer to host your podcast but very few of them actually understand the true nature of podcasting. A podcast host absolutely, positively must provide unlimited bandwidth, some mechanism so that you never have to take a show 'off the air' and a valid RSS feed for listeners to subscribe to.

Eric and Robert are in, as are a few others. (via Cosmos)

Scripting News: 7/18/2006: Heads up to people who use the OPML Editor as a blogging tool. I've been working on static rendering of weblog content, which would allow blogs to be hosted anywhere, via any upload mechanism. That's part of the reason why I did the fileSynch builtin (and its connection to Amazon S3), to give (via Cosmos)

SongTrellis - Music and Musical Know-How For You SongTrellis - Music and Musical Know-How For You: If media indexes were available for music and for other reasonable media types (films, audio recordings), it would be possible to use the OPML Editor or other suitable browsers to navigate through the time sequence of any media object. If there were a method to associate a media index with a particular media object and if web browsers understoood the OPML format, it would be possible to extend existing web browsers so that users could use general purpose browsers to navigate within media and to set bookmarks that could cause excerpts to be produced from within media objects of many different types.

http://blogs.opml.org/amyloo  Amyloo's OPML blog: Saturday, July 22, 2006: You could start making your individual OPML file first and decide after that if you want to be the coordinator. So first you choose a tool: download the OPML Editor and install it, or try one of the online tools like OPML Manager. (via Cosmos)

Dannyayers.comhttp://dannyayers.com [Dannyayers.com] OPML revisited: I’ve done OPML feedlists, both in a simple interpretation (opml2blogroll.xsl) and one which interprets the categories found in many aggregators as SKOS terms (opml2skosroll.xsl). Once the data is available as RDF, the rest of the use case is wide open - I’ve been using it rather predictably in an aggregator which has SPARQL query facilities (the aggregated view is in fact just SPARQL results XSLT’d).
