The Tech Stuff - with RSS.com

  • Phase 8 of the new “Podcasting 2.0” podcast namespace now contains proposals for three new features:

    • An expansion of the podcast:location tag. This allows a location of the subject of the podcast (“this is a show about the Eiffel Tower”), but now also allows a location of the creator (“I’m recording this show in Chicago, IL”). The proposal includes a simple JavaScript generator, for ease of use and integration into any podcast host.
    • A new podcast:follow tag, to make it easier for podcasters to give “follow” links on a variety of platforms. Those links are in a separate JSON file to ensure the RSS feed doesn’t get materially larger.
    • An expansion to the podcast:images tag, to allow links to banners, YouTube-sized thumbnails, and other images.
  • AntennaPod, the open source podcast app for Android, released v3.7.0. Among the changes, you can now select individual shows you want to auto-download.

Moves and hires

  • Del Fordham is now Associate Director of Originals for Audible in the Asia Pacific. He joins from Nine Entertainment and News Corp.
