    Have not forgotten about that, glemak. As soon as Chris gets back from his trip, I'm putting him on it. Should be an easy fix. Says the guy who doesn't write the code. :)

    w00t! great stuff! :) It would be great to have all these books available via one of our subdomains. All we need is the rss ;) I also plan an additional feature to podcast.com to view all items in feeds, as well as 'last five' :) thx mike!

    Sounds like you just need an OPML file of all of our "default" feeds for each book. Simple enough. Though we may need you work on the ordering. It's a bit off.

    Aha! Y'see, this is where podcast.com comes in to play! :) Once you've got your OPML file sorted out, I'll set you up with the (in progress) ability to import this in to a podcast.com account. Then you can use our tools to order in to folders/genres etc. using our simple drag and drop folder manager! w00t! :) - Then you/we'll be able to knock together a simple 'PodioBooks Navigator / Reader/ Player' using the OPML which our system helps you manage.

    Hurrah! :)

    Eek. That doesn't sound like fun at all. We have over 150 books right now, and are adding something like 3 a week. It's just not practical for us to go in and manage specific directories on sites other than ours.

    So let's work on a way to automate, OK?

    Oh no no no.. .it IS fun!! :) heh - mike, tell 'im ;)

    Do you have an OPML manager application at your end? Surely it would be great to effectively instantly categorise your books in folders (like bookshelves') ?? Or are your book lists in a long list?

    Then your system could use actually use the resulting data to automatically create many things for your site.

    Taxonomy is something books are pretty used to, I'd say.. eh? ;)

    Kosso,

    Let's take this offline. I'm getting confused and need to communicate differently than Jaiku allows. Email is coming.
