Bigbro's foray into the scary world of blogging
I'm relatively new to the world of podcasts, but have finally found a number of them that I enjoy. Linux is my operating system of choice, and Amarok (on the eeePC) and RhythmBox (on any of my Ubuntu machines) provide all the RSS functionality I require. I can enter an RSS feed URL and it will merrily download any new episodes that appear.
But how do I listen to them? Specifically, how do I keep track of the episodes I've listened to and those that are waiting for my eager ears? One suggestion I've received from an iPod user is that iPod and iTunes keeps track of the number of times you've listened to tracks. This makes things simple since I can make a playlist in iTunes of Podcast tracks that have a listened to count of 0 (zero.)
But what if I don't want to use iTunes - or an blog-at-signal2noise-dot-ie - any suggestions, particularly those encompassing Linux and a Creative Nano. If the best suggestion is really really good, I'll even award a prize - along with publishing it here :-)
