Enhanced Transmission

Monday, October 17th, 2005

Prompted by listener suggestions, we’re experimenting with “enhanced podcasts,” or AAC files with chapter markers, graphics, and links for chapter-capable players (like iTunes and iPods). This will make it easier to skip between segments in “The Transmission.” If you want to get enhanced versions of our show rather than the original MP3 flavor, use this feed in your podcatcher or aggregator.

Chances are “The (Enhanced) Transmission” will come out the day after the original show. Try it out and let us know what you think… is it worth the wait?

Nifty!

Yahoo! has jumped into the podcast directory fray with a pretty sharp setup. You can find “The Transmission” listed right here. Works with iTunes (via .pcast) and the Yahoo! Music Engine. Ratings and comments welcome!

Also, “The Transmission” made its iTunes Podcast Directory front page debut today. Number 12 in the iTunes Top 100 Podcasts list, too!

We even got a link from AOL’s snazzy “Lost on ABC” page, alongside many of our favorite fan sites.

Thanks, everyone, for your support. I’m sure we’ll stop getting giddy about this stuff eventually. In the mean time, we’ll be sure to let some pressure out of our heads now and then!
