Harold Reed @ DarnPC has stepped up to the plate to help Tech News Radio by providing us with some storage and bandwidth via one of his domains (geekon.com).
I have updated the URLs for the latest Tech Tidbits Daily and Tech Rag Tear Outs. I’ll migrate more as time permits.
Please let me know at technewsradio@gmail.com if things are working out better now or if you are still having problems.
Thanks again to Harold! 🙂

I was skimming through Tidbits this morning, and they are talking about Apple’s new OS. Down in the Spotlight review area there was a pointer to a product called Clarity that sound kinda interesting for improving Outlook, which is something I use 99% of the time.
So … I bounce over to the URL and find two good examples of creating what I am calling "anti-buzz":
Well … I’m busy to … pretty "clear" that I moving on to someone else …

I have heard from a couple of people that there have been some recent download issues with the podcast MP3s.
There is some sort of new features being worked on by TypePad (the host provider for Tech News Radio) that are redirecting both browsers and podcatching clients to: http://sholden.typepad.com.nyud.net:8090/technewsradio/.
I think this is normal or as planned by Typepad, but I have noticed (and others also) very slow download speeds and sometimes DNS issues.
I have submitted a help ticket item, and as soon as I know anything I’ll let you all know. If anyone has any additional info, please send email to: technewsradio@gmail.com.
Thanks for your support!
UPDATE: TypePad is moving towards offering/utlizing the Coral distribution network. They also appear to have some new "packages" for doing podcast distribution in the works.

This is your Tech Tidbits Daily for Monday, May 2nd, 2005.Today’s podcast contains one technical news item and a related interview.
Apple released Mac OS Tiger on Friday, April 29, 2005. Some key new features include: Spotlight (integrated search), Dashboard (data access widgets), iChat AV (enhanced video/audio conferencing), Automator (repetitive task automation), .MAC (sync your key data with online backup), SafariRSS (basic RSS reader), QuickTime 7 (features the H.264 codec for higher video quality), and Mail (better photo integration and features). This list of eight items is pretty compelling and the official list of new features and fixes is reportedly over 250. Definitely something for a Windows person to consider.
On the topic of SafariRSS, I was able get this opinion piece from Adam @ The MacCast. Thanks Adam for inviting me to the Tiger launch. And thanks for providing me with your input.
