Podcast with preview
With the new iTunes 9.0.3, slightly released after the iPad Keynote, there is a nice and big surprise for all podcasters.
Previously, when a user clicked a link leading to a podcast, it brought you to an empty white web page. Then, iTunes was opened – and if not installed you got a offer to download [...]
Getting back a lost podcast episode
For podcast management I am using iTunes of course. I like iTunes. Really!
Sometimes my fingers are too fast and something is trashed, especially podcast episodes. If you are wacking the same as me, then I am sure this or the other time you want it being undone.
