Dave on Scripting News and Mike over on Techcrunch post their views of OPML used for ‘reading lists’.

Hmm.. All my web requests to anything dot podshow.com are being redirected to btpodshow.com
I know they have just done a deal with BT. But hiking the stats like that is a bit rum.
Is this just a UK thing BT are forcing them to do with IP address blocks (as the BBC do). If you are […]
If you head on over to index.podcast.com , you will find a browsable A to Z index of all the podcasts in the podcast.com system.
