More Podcasts and Apple blew up

So yesterday I was downloading my podcasts like usual and I got out to the car and started to load my morning listening, and boom there was NOTHING on my ipod. I even used the Apple eject button at the bottom right, to no avail. Oh well. I had to try about 10 times to get it to load up and sync, very annoying. What I think finally did it was ejecting the drive from itunes and then reconnecting it without doing anything else to itunes. But anyways, maybe I'll go back to Amarok for my Linux syncing.

Amarok mainly did what I wanted, my only slight issue was that it messes up song timings somehow, which is probably a libgtkpod problem. I thought some of my podcasts were having issues from a Amarok POV, but I now lay blame to the podcast publishers.

I've been listening to the mysportsradio.com stuff. Mainly just NFL and the Bears cast, although I may pick up the Pittsburgh cast for my wife. Good stuff. The other thing I got is that Franciscan started a "Spirit and Life" podcast from their conferences. Go to www.franciscanconferences.com to find it. So that's most of it. I went to the Charismatic conference this last weekend. Great stuff. Patty Mainsfield (I believe that's the correct spelling) and Sr. Briege McKenna were amazing speakers. Overall it's been a good pick me up, get back to your spiritual life for me.

Upcoming is that an open source project got me really jazzed and once I get a few patches done this week I'll blog on it.
