Noticed something interesting whilst pruning my wiki list of Irish podcasts (I think its complete, let me know if you find any notable absences) - virtually no podfade. I wonder if this is a uniquely Irish stubbornness. The only exception that springs to mind on the list is Liam Burke’s sadly demised Podato, the original podcast dating site, which to be fair was far ahead of its time - as illustrated by the growth of newer podcast / vidcast dating sites, like PodDater, recently featured on TechCrunch.
Edit: A question, does anyone know a quick and easy way to scrape a Mediawiki page, to generate an RSS feed with enclosures?

I suppose it depends on what you want, and if i’m guessing right you probably want something very specific. My best advice would be a custom perl script or wait until the mediawiki software to mature. Heck, maybe there already is an appropriate perl script out in the wild for what you want.

You dumped me worse than Andrew Baron dumped Amanda Congdon! But alas, Jason Calacanis didn’t offer me a job even though we share the same wonderful first name.
Just kiddin.
