Create Your Own Podcast Feeds

While listening to this week's episode of my favorite podcast, This Week in Google, I learned about a cool new tool called Huffduffer. This nifty tool addresses a need I have had for some time: the ability to create your own podcast feed out of any audio file you find on the Internet. I subscribe to a lot of different podcasts, and I love that new podcasts are automatically downloaded to my computer as they are available. However, occasionally I'll find an audio interview or random podcast that doesn't have an RSS feed, so I can't program it to download to my PC. Huffduffer was designed for those random files. After you register, you'll get a bookmarklet for your browser - when you see an audio file you'd like to keep, just "Huffduff it," and the file will get added to a special RSS feed. Then all you need to do is subscribe to that feed in iTunes or whatever music player you use, and the files will automatically download to your computer. Here's another way to use it - create a Huffduff feed of audio files you want others to hear. Just fill your feed with audio for others, and post the link to the RSS feed on your website. A really intriguing tool - check it out.
