Sam Sethi: PodFans, Podnews Weekly Review and River Radio

Sam Sethi is setting out on his biggest adventure yet. The host
of Podnews Weekly Review and former programmer at Windows and
Netscape, is launching Podfans; part of a new wave of podcast
apps you can find here on the Podnews website.


Over the last few years, podcast shows like Podnews, Pocasting
2.0 with Adam Curry and Dave Jones, and shortly after The New
Media Show with Rob Greenlee and Todd Cochrane, began to talk
about ways to improve the technology involved with podcast
delivery. Think of things like sending money straight to the host
or evenly amongst hosts, being able to follow along with
captions, listening live when the show goes live, listening to
podcasts created in your neighbourhood, and chapter markers so
you don't have to scan every 15 or seconds for the part of the
show you are looking for.


In this episode you will hear about Sam's time at Netscape and
Windows, how he got involved in meeting James Cridland and
devising the Podcast Weekly Review, and what exactly goes into
building a podcast app like Podfans, and why he wanted to ensure
that there was a desktop component to it. You can register for
Podfans here.
