Shameless plug: podcast any RSS feed

I thought I'd plug my new project on use.perl as some of you might find it interesting.

Talkr is a service that allows you to create a podcast of any RSS feed.

If you point Talkr to an RSS feed (your own or someone else's), Talkr will give you an RSS feed that points to an mp3 file for each article. You can configure your computer to download those audio files as they become available and drop them directly onto your iPod (or other mp3 player).

Here are links to a couple of BoingBoing articles if you want to hear what it sounds like:

• Smile for the Google 3D mapping truck (27 seconds)
• Bluetooth PIN crack: not a good thing, say researchers. (1:42 seconds)

Talkr runs on mod_perl, of course. If you are interested in trying Talkr out with your own blog, you can sign up here.

    Talkr is not affiliated with BoingBoing in any way. They just write about interesting stuff.

I've been telling lots of folks about Talkr. I had no idea that I knew the guy behind it. :)
