We're pleased to announce:

More Control of your Shoutouts and Fans

Due to popular demand we've added the ability to edit your shoutouts and your fans! Just go to your profile page or your podcast and click on view shoutouts. From there you can edit both:

http://www.podomatic.com/profile

Want a larger audience? Now it's easy to get on our homepage

We really appreciate those of you who have been inviting friends to join PodOmatic and helping us grow.

To thank you we will place your show on our homepage when you invite 4 or more new people to join PodOmatic (they don't have to be a podcaster, just one of your friends).

You'll need a profile photo too. The photos really make everything look great!

Invite your friends here:

Hey,

I do have a question about the request. Is it so that you can compare your show with others or is it so that others can see yours? I know it's a nuance but we're concerned about privacy (after the spam issue's been solved etc...) and we want to make sure no one is upset.

As I think about it,I suppose we could make it optional. Hmm....

What do you think?

Aloha,

I was thinking more along the lines of the latter--so that others can see how many total subscribers have subscribed to our show. Your competition over at Odeo seem to be offering that option to those who create podcasts with them... More importantly, however, I, myself, would like to know personally how many total subscribers I have because the current stats feature does not keep track of the total, unless, of course, one has to upgrade in order to be able to see this total figure... But I think it would awesome if us newbies could just keep track of the total amount of subscribers we have--it doesn't really have to be publicized.

Mahalo e B. Mahalo for your time and attention to this matter. smiley

Aloha,
'Alika ("Alexander" in Hawaiian)

The 4 friends that we invite, can it be the same 4 friends(emails)or does it have to be 4 entirely new email addresses every time we want to be on the homepage of Podomatic? Just wondering because I am running out of friends soon.

RE: counters and such intricaces.

I'm completely new but people want your html and instruction and such from me. I say keep a little difficult weed out the stupid people, and make more stuff free- then blow up like myspace, and get big huge bucks and a mansion on A1A. smiley

But that is just my opinion.
I mean the point is to keep us casting at a sucessful rate right? I mean why else would it be free. Then again there is alot of free stuff out there these days. Anyway- this is fun and a way of sharing my music and expressing myself and all. My ratings really fell while at work though...sad

Got any automatic features? This is hard work...whew........who are my subscribers anyway?
Can I at least know where thay are at or have you thought of this already?

Profiles serve 3 purposes:

1. Let your audience see the back story on your show.
2. The more friends you have on your profile the greater chance you have of finding new shows that are good. If you know what your friends like, and you like your friends winking
, chances are that they'll find things you haven't and you'll then know about it.
3. Your profile is about you and the music and shows you like. Anyone that visits it has a chance of finding new things because you've found them.

I hope this explains it.

I think he was just asking about how to get on the "featured members" portion of the home page, and couldn't figure out why the "friends" he's inviting were hitting his profile and not counting towards his four. ... but, then realized he was logged-in. I should get an A for translation. Assuming that Mrplague is some sort of representative of Podomatic and is answering questions: The real question or comment that i had in mind is in reguard to the profiles. In the future will there be seperate catagories for talk shows and music (and stuff) contolled by the website? With all the people (including our show) that are joining, its really full of podcasts that are just, kind of, jumbled. For example, Losing Weight Free Podcast under "talk", or Kenny G's Playhouse Magic Hour under "news". Lies. All lies.

There have been many complaints about miscategorization. I've been avoiding the PodSchtapo question for a while for 2 main reasons:

1. We give you the means for you to say and do what you want. To that end, we don't arbitrate your show. It is yours to do with as you please.
2. I'm way too busy to police people.

You're always welcome to contact podcasters and ask them to re-categorize themselves. Personally I think miscategorization is a mistake because you won't correctly appear in search results. Why listen to a podcast about fishing when I'm interested in dinner reviews?

This is great....except....I went through and updated my address book on podomatic and weeded out like 200 people.

Then I went to send it again by looking in the Manage your Audience tab and they're all still there.

PodOmatic is GREAT so I'm not complaining, but I would love it if you have a simple solution so I don't have to delet 200 people every time I want to shout a message.

peace & love,

I harvested all the addys from the podOmatic address book, discarding the obvious spammers.

I then set up Outlook Express (most mail aaps have this feature) to add the subscribers in a group. Now with two clicks, I can email a BBC to each subscriber without revealing the 2312 email addresses to spammers.

I check the address book daily and remove new subscribers and add 'em in. No sweat.

1-I noticed that some of the pos i tried to listen to are in mp4. so i cant listen in windows media player. is there a way to convert or tell the people tha not every one have mp4 players to listen to this kind of format?

2-Some of the pod I tried to listen to are in a very acelerated rate. why does it hapen? the people who posted could listen to it in a normal speed?

3-Some of the lay outs does not make possible for the show to registrate fans. (periscopio for example). is there a way to revert this or to fix it?

about spans i had a lot of complain from my friends becouse everytime i posted they received a mail. Than i realised that at the end of the post there is a feature that captures, if you alow, al the adresses of your friendes in a certain mail. it is span. maybe podomatic coul make this feature to work onli once for each adress.

maybe what i said can help to make podomatic better than it already is.

Please post to the appropriate forum and thread if you have issues.

1. We will convert mp4's in the very near future, that problem will go away.

2. Old mp3's will either not play or play accelerated in the flash player. New ones are automatically resampled so the problem will go away over time.

3. No fix.

4. Edit your address book here:

Eso es algo de lo que estan mencionando algunos mensajes atras y tiene que ver con los archivos MP4 (que son the Apple y no tocan en WMP). Mencionan que en el futuro, todas las sumisiones serán automaticamente convertidas an MP3, y el problema desaparecerá.

This is something that is being mentioned a few posts back and have to do with MP4 files (Apple, not play in WMP). They mention that all submissions will eventually be converted to MP3 and the problem will disappear.

I figured you might have it solved by now but thought I'd just say something in case ya hadn't...
I had a few folks get 'cast announcements from other casters on my mailing list, and this was the only place I had mailed them all together like that. I had used the "notify" feature, but this was back before you gave it the new look. It DID however cause me to think twice about doing it THRU the site, so for a while I was doing it thru my OWN mail program.
I realized later, however, that I was missing MANY of my listeners whose names WERE on my PODOMATIC list but not my personal list, so now I'm back to using yours...
Hope I haven't confused you further with all this mumbo jumbo, lol... In a word, THANKS.
God Bless

i find really annoying having to check the emails with friends requests one-by-one.
wouldn't be easier if you just put a page with all the friends request gathered and chek/uncheck at the same time all the requests and aprrove/deny them?
that'd be waay easier.
