Cool! Does anyone know if the show notes appear in any other players besides iPod Touch/iPhone and Windows Media Player?

By the way, some of this stuff appears in Windows Media Player when playing the podcasts as well.

That’s actually something that’s been on the drawing board since last year. Adding links to old posts is easier than adding tags to 159 archived MP3 files

It could also be nice to have a direct link to all the episodes that have had cast/crew interviews, they could be listed on a separate page under the name of the guest. If there is such a feature, I’ve missed it. It can be slow and tedious to find those shows from the archives, going through them one by one… as long as we’re throwing suggestions out here.

And holy cow… going back and adding that to 159 episodes? You already know how much work I’ve got on my plate!

Yes, I do. That’s why ducked away immediately after writing it Nah, it was just a question to tease you. I know about the feature inside iTunes, used it quite often. Even though I wish it was searchable. I found myself coming to this site sometimes and using your ‘Search’ function instead so I could get the desired content faster.

Yes, that’s for real. If you don’t have an iPhone or iPod Touch, but you’re collecting the podcast in iTunes, and you do a “Get Info”, you’ll see that same text in the Lyrics field.

And yes, someone sent in a voicemail throwing that wish out to the universe.

Guys, are you going to make this feature available for the past 159 episodes as well? *retreats and runs*

BTW: The screenshot shows the ep summary of show 160. Is that one for real? The summary? Or did you just make a mockup? Because that very last sentence is incredibly intriguing.

Wait a minute… you only told me about that feature to increase your self-pimping visibility?

Aww, man….

I really justed wanted to see my name on the screen for the Garypaloozas, but if other people can benefit from it in other ways, that’s good too.

Sheesh, guys, thanks. Your timing is great, I just had my iPod touch watered and turned into a brick. *dramatic sigh*

But awesome idea nonetheless. That was a feature I always missed because I usually had a couple of non-consecutive podcasts on my iPod and never knew why I had chosen a certain one. Thanks for implementing that feature.

Now I just need a new iPod. Or better: the iPhone.
