Google Podcasts closes, and joins the graveyard

The Tech Stuff – with RSS.com

  • The Stitcher app closed on Aug 29 last year. Nobody appears to have told its RSS feed checker, though, which is still checking our RSS feed every hour, lonely, on a little server all by itself, that nobody cares for any more…

  • OP3 is now measuring over 17 million downloads a month. The free, open podcast analytics service takes just minutes to get set up.

  • We’re hearing intriguing discussion of a “Podcasting 2.0” event – either virtual or, perhaps, even in a physical one, designed to help podcasters get up to speed on some of the new features. We hope to carry news when we have it.

  • One thing we forgot to mention last week in our saving bandwidth special was the if-modified-since header. For podcast RSS feeds, it should be relatively trivial to use this; we’re capturing details this week on who isn’t, yet, using it (and requesting RSS feeds in full every time).
