If you, like me, are a Linux user, there’s a new release candidate of iPodder 2.0 for Linux. I haven’t yet had the opportunity to test it, but plan on doing so in the next few evenings. It’s good to see that their Linux development is moving forward, as iPodder is hard to beat for a GUI client. It should be an interesting addition to the new SuSE 9.3 Pro laptop installation.

There are also several updates to my podcatching client of choice, the command-line tool Armangil’s podcatcher. Version 0.2.1 has been out for a bit more than a month and works better than ever. This is the client I use from cron – running a script with all the appropriate options every 6 hours. I notice, too, that the site mentions the post on Linux podcatching clients I did for my dad’s site, GeekTimeLinux.com. (I know – the post mentions that it’s part of a series. I’ll get back to it … ) I’ll have to revisit and refresh with some of the changes to this newest version.
