Two comments on podcasting:
1. I just created one for the One-Minute Vacation page on my site.
A new 60 sec unedited field recordings from submitters like you every
Monday. Participation is encouraged.

Is it possible to podcast mp3-streams?
Can this be done with rss-2 by somehow attaching the
streamed-audio-url? (http://63.170.215.11:8000 )
Seems unlikely? If it's a non-terminating stream, how would the aggregator
know when to stop capturing...?
The RSS <enclosure> tag that AFAIK "drives" podcasting has a length
argument in it; the RSS2 specs I could find say that length is mandatory,
but who knows if it's cross-referenced or used for sanity checking by
aggregators though... eg Firefox's "Sage" extension for RSS feeds ignores
the tag entirely, which means you don't get the MP3s!
best,
aaron
