    I like Chris Moyles and I think that he can be very entertaining. I listen to him at work most days and find him neither homophobic nor abusive. Just funny. People need to remember that they don't have to listen to anyone and not take things so personally.

    Adam,

    The easiest way to test the site for accesibility for the visually impaired is to try using the site yourself with a browser such as "Lynx" or "Links", both of which are text based. Of the two, Lynx seems to be the most universally reliable for accessibility testing. Here are some URLs if you would like to try them :

    Lynx : http://lynx.isc.org/
    Links : http://links.sourceforge.net/

    I hope this helps.

    You said the only thing you really liked about the Chris Moyles show was the "date diversion" line idea. Well, it's called "Flirt Divert", but it's by Scott Mills (4pm-7pm on Radio 1), not Chris Moyles.

    Decaf - noted.

    Stern is a shock-jock, moyles is a naughty little boy who isnt really that funny at all.

    If i ring any more ill end up with my own theme tunes! "He comes the grumpy bastard northener!"

    Adam, I have taken a loook at:
    http://developer.podshow.com/apis/pdn/authoring/
    ... and in the method of XML-RPC:

    metaWeblog.newMediaObject (blogid, username, password, struct) returns struct

    ... I don't see at all any ability to resume upload after connection crash.

    WITHOUT RESUME making an uploader is totally pointless. You have no RESUME ability (methods that would show how much was uploaded and resume after the interruption) in the API!

    IN other words: please add resume to the API or just allow REGULAR FTP UPLOADS because regular FTP has resume bulit-in!!!!

    yes Adam, British radio is fucked up, I have often heard some listener saying "Marks and Spencer sucks" and radio presenter saying right away "but we love Marks and Spencer here" etc etc. Totally NOTHING really serious can be said on British radio.

    This quote "tested on real users or those podshow users?" --- very funny!!!!

    Adam, you didn't play my audio comment about uploads in podshow.com (next time if you'd lose my audio comment just send me email and I will resend it!) but it's OK - just please take it to your heart :-) Mainly : resume ability (no need to upload from start after crash of connection) = SHOULD be must-have feature in stand-alone uploader - if "resume" is not in the protocol, then it will not be in uploader, if you catch my drift...

    your quasi-scientific interpretration of numbers sounded a bit dodgy like "I can prove that any numbers are good for me", but well you know "lies, damned lies and statistics"...

    thought of the week: yes, you got it right what is the most important thing.
