Finally, after way too freaking long, Buraka Som Sistema has released their latest album, Black Diamond. The song above, Sound of Kuduro is by far the best on the album, but there are some other nice gems on here. MIA is featured on several tracks, and the rhythm is just addicting. I cannot sit still when this is on.

Podcasting is one of the RSS trends I least get, but I’m seeing signs of greater adoption. This past week’s issue of The Economist had a full page print ad from Courtyard by Marriott that mentioned podcasting as one of the things you could do with their free Internet access.

I actually like the idea behind PodCasting. I think it has interesting potential that just hasn’t found its niche yet.

I get it, but I don’t think this is the right way to do it. This goes back to my post about lame vs. useful. This seems lame to me, but if it works, I guess it works…

why is it lame?

I mean the implementation is lame. Someone had a good idea and saw RSS as a way to make it happen easier. There’s nothing wrong, per se, with it, but it’s not exactly the ideal implementation. We’re seeing all sorts of hoops being jumped through by vendors in order to get the music to your iPod, for example, or to your MP3 player.
They’ll get it sorted out (and already have in some ways on the mac if you’re willing to pay for another program).
I suspect that once the OSes come with RSS support, perhaps they’ll include podcasting support (or at least enclosure support) directly in the packaged music/media applications. iTunes and WMP already support both audio and video. All they need is an RSS hook.
