One of my planned site improvements is to make it easier for listeners to get to my back catalogue of podcasts and for me to better track subscriber numbers. I think I have arrived at a “win-win” with the establishment of two new podcast feeds.
For listeners who prefer the versatile mp3 audio format, please subscribe to this feed:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/winecast-mp3
After you have clicked on the link above, you will see a number of “subscribe now” buttons for various podcatching clients, including Apple’s iTunes. Just click on these or paste the feed address into your software. Once re-subscribed, you will see all 68 podcasts and one episode of my Quick Picks podcast for your downloading and listening pleasure.
For listeners with iPods or who prefer to hear the show from within the iTunes software on their computers, please subscribe to this feed:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/winecast-aac
Once re-subscribed you will see my last 37 shows and the lone Quick Picks podcast along with my most recent promo for other podcasters to use on their shows. The reason there are fewer shows on this feed is all of these are enhanced with chapter breaks, changing artwork and weblinks which were not possible until about a year ago. Also note that the 5 shows from this summer missing from the feed have been added, so if you haven’t yet caught the mp3 version of the show, you will have some fresh Winecasts to listen to. My apologies for getting so far behind on this feed as I released podcasts this summer.
If you want every post, including both blog entries and podcasts, please subscribe to this feed:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/winecast
By using these feeds, I will more accurately track the number of subscribers which will help attract sponsors to underwrite the show. I really appreciate your support here.
BTW, everyone using iTunes who don’t want immediate access to the older shows can just stay where they are as I am in the process of migrating my iTunes channels to these new feeds. One day, you will notice all the older shows pop up in iTunes once this migration is complete.
Finally, I have a new poll on the right sidebar of the blog to help gauge demand for future site features. Please stop by and cast your vote when you have a chance…
