Thanks to Holger Flick for letting me know that our podcast is now iPod Touch/iPhone ready! I don’t have an iPod Touch or iPhone (yet), so I wasn’t even aware this was a problem. Since I haven’t changed anything then I assume this is a new feature of CyberEars, who provides the hosting for my podcast and feed.
I got a chance to sit down with Julian Bucknall, the CTO of DevExpress at PDC2008 to talk about using DevExpress’ .NET products with CodeGear‘s Delphi Prism from Embarcadero Technology.
Specifically we talk about the return of CodeRush to Delphi.
The microphone picked up all the background noise, which makes it a little hard to understand us, so I added captions.

I recorded a few videos at PDC 2008. This one is a walk through of the exhibit floor. I didn’t want to post all the videos at once, but I must admit I am posting them slower then I expected. A lot of that has to do with preparing for CodeRage.
I this video I walk through the Exhibit Floor and show off a few of the vendors. It is 9:48 long. Again it is available in your choice of formats. Let me know in the comments which is your favorite, or if there is one you really need to have (not just that you think is cool).
New Poll for your voting pleasure. Please let me know your favorite podcast format of the ones I have provided so far. I plan on mixing it up with a couple different formats, but it would be nice to know the preferred format.

Back in episode 2 Nick Hodges told us to learn the latest features of .NET since the future version of Delphi for .NET will have full support of all .NET features. Instead of learning C# or VB.NET, we can use Oxygene by RemObjects. In this episode we talk with marc hoffman of RemObjects about Oxygene – the surprisingly complete Object Pascal implementation for .NET.
Some of you may have noticed a poll on the left side bar on our home page. These polls provide a great way for me to aggregate your feedback on how to improve the podcast. When I first started this podcast my target duration was 15 miuntes to a half hour. Then I started interviewing all these interesting people and my duration shot up to about 45 miuntes. I actually edit the hour long interview down quite a bit, but they are still longer then I planned. Maybe that is a good thing. Let me know what you think. How long would the ideal podcast be for you?

Loading ...I’ve been tracking my traffic and I am getting a pretty heafty amount of traffic on my feeds. So I have setup 3 new FeedBurner feeds. This should alleviate some of the server load, and also provide a lot of great support to the subscribers. If you have any trouble or would like a new feed with the content sliced up differently, please let me know . . ..
Main site feed Podcast only feed (Use this feed if you are using a podcast client. It has all the special podcast tags.) Comments Feed (Use this feed to get all the comments from all the posts.)If you are using one of the Delphi.org feeds then you should be redirected automatically (if everything worked correctly.) If you are using the CyberEars feed, then you may want to switch to the Podcast only feed – it is the official feed, the one I will be maintaining. I am still using CyberEars, but I might do things that don’t make it work exactly the way you are expecting (I like to tweak things!)
Again, if you experience any problems, or have suggestions please let me know!
