Video podcasters on youtube, please start using blip.tv

I have a simple request to all video podcasters who upload their videos exclusively to youtube: upload ‘em to blip.tv as well. I’m asking you to do this so I can subscribe to your feed outside of the youtube domain using whatever viewing mechanism pleases me. I happen to have a Windows media center rig plugged into my TV with TV Tonic installed, but I’m sure my request applies to owners of the new iTV thing as well since one can use iTunes to subscribe to podcasts. Thanks.

Oh, and youtube, I realize you like to keep people hanging out on your site, but I bet I’m not the only one who would really dig it if you offered RSS feeds for your channels. Millions read my blog, and by tomorrow, every serial video poster will abandon your site in favor of blip.tv unless you do something now. (blip.tv, get ready for the huge bandwidth increase.)

Rotted Brain

A couple of my good buddies have been diligently producing a tech-focused podcast every weekday for a couple months now. Being on vacation, I had the opportunity to sit in on the last two episodes to demonstrate my complete ignorance. Check them out at rottedbrain.com. In the latest episode we discussed a painstakingly crafted “top ten websites of 2006″ list.

It’s funny I’m posting this on Google-owned Blogger.com. This really isn’t just a Google problem. (I admit I almost believed the “don’t be evil” bullshit for a little bit.) An increasing amount of American companies do gazillions in trade with China. It ain’t just hookers and drug dealers compromising/revising their values to make a buck.
