While keeping an eye on Twitter updates via Twitterrific today, I stumbled across an excellent web application called Wakoopa. Weird name huh? What’s it all about?

When iTunes 4.9 was released, podcasts were exposed to a large potential audience. I subscribed to dozens. Since then, I’ve followed the podcasting industry at a distance over the past few years.
