Last night I left Buffer.
Simply I want to do more than just post to Facebook and Twitter. Finally, the workflow is easier from WordPress to the sites than doing Buffer first.
Goodbye and thanks.

Programming when it isn’t needed…
I was interested by this…
Dave is looking for a script to move a podcast into iTunes and then put it in a playlist.
WHY?
There is a far easier way to get the this functionality. Subscribe the the podcast in iTunes, then create a playlist that only shows podcasts that have a play count of zero. You’re done!
The result is all the unlisted to podcasts in a single playlist and they’ll disappear when you’ve listen to them.
I must be missing something. Or it could be another case of this… YouTube – Wilkinson & Winer
OLPC vs. Intel podcast
Joho the Blog pointed out that TwiT came up with gold this week.
Last week I started questioning why I spend an hour a week listening to Twit and then this comes along, this has to be one of the best Podcasts I’ve heard in a long while.
Just shows what a fantastic media it can be when done right.
PS – Joho will also be speaking at LeWeb3. I’m starting to get excited!!!
Dave Winer is wrong (for once)
Specifically about podcasting (Scripting News)
Every six months or so Dave Winer tells us that the iPod isn’t a good podcast player and that we need to build a new one. The wish-list is always roughly the same and it’s always Open Source.
An Open Source podcast player; the ideal toy for developers, a mobile developer platform.
First, I’ve nothing against the idea, in fact, I think that it would be great.
However, it wouldn’t promote the development of podcasting. The issue with podcasting is finding things that are worth listening to. I don’t have trouble teaching my mother to use an iPod but getting her to subscribe to a feed is impossible.
The solution to the podcasting isn’t the device, it’s the guide.
PS – Dave, if you want to scream at me, see you next Tuesday at LeWeb3!
PPS – While I’m on the subject, why is the iTunes store so difficult to use? It’s impossible to browse for music. It’s fantastic once you know what you’re looking for but I don’t know what I’m looking for!!!
