Podcast Directory Woes – Ray Booysen with iPodder.org

December 13, 2005

+

+

+

+

+

+
Ray Booysen who manages several nodes (hacking, games, and technology) in the iPodder.org (aka Indiepodder.org) has been having a bunch of problems and not getting anywhere. He posts his details of his woes at:
- http://www.rjb.za.net/archives/2005/12/13/ipodderorg-node-editing/
Ray makes some good points on how little support there is within the directory. I was able to get Jersey Boys Broadway into iTunes, Yahoo, Odeo, and Podcast Alley before I gave up on the insanely stupid multiple directory hell that podcasters are currently in. I can’t even seem to get into Podcast Pickle, and I still can’t figure out what AOL is doing.

Starting a new podcast can be a real challenge, and I think I sort of know what is going on.

The Jersey Boys reviews continue to roll in:
- Christopher Rawson @ Pittsburgh Post-Gazette notes that the music of the Jersey Boys "still reverberates in your emotional memory."
- Patrick Pacheco @ The Times had a great characterization that "[the] audience gets a high-octane jolt of what it’s like to have an all-access backstage pass."
- Misha Berson the Seattle Times theater critic summarized with, "Yup, this is a jukebox musical. But a deluxe model that makes you want to get up and dance."
