What Is It?

 

Intro

  • I use flickr and when i got my iPod Video i felt that Photo Podcasting had been overlooked.
  • After some googling and hunting on del.icio.us i couldn't find any easy way to do this with iTunes, iPhoto or some flickr hacks.
  • I gave it a rest until i discovered that Kalli, a fellow iPod owner and flickr nerd, was interested in getting photo podcasting going.

 

The solution

  • We created a workflow in Automator that, combined with iCal, becomes a photo podcasting client.
    • The workflow does not use the RSS feed, since there are no RSS options in Automator.

 

Name calling

  • Since this is the web 2.0 era, catchy and (seemingly) meaningful names are important so i decided to call the workflow, Photocastr, that name is subject to change if a better one comes along.

 

Now what?.

  • Maybe someone will find this usefull and perhaps someone can improve on the process and simplify it.
  • So instead of keeping this to myself, i am putting it on this wiki, so go ahead, participate.

 

i expect this to be a temporary hack since this is bound to show up in a news aggregator or itunes any time soon.
