I'm trying to get my own podcast to come up on a search and so far no dice. But I can get it to come up by typing in the full rss feed address. I can also get it to sync up with Reader but it's a little bit iffy still. But for a Beta it's pretty good. Just hope they continue the development.0friendsrecordingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17354056201651891355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-18141697180143103572010-10-26T13:19:37.028-07:002010-10-26T13:19:37.028-07:00We really need a way to play Queued item from Olde...We really need a way to play Queued item from Oldest to Newest instead of Newest to Oldest.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02170990874755347080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-88847391595229278682010-09-16T11:09:03.205-07:002010-09-16T11:09:03.205-07:00@Jon F Hancock

Podcasts stop and start at the beginning unexpectedly, the scroll bar to go earlier or later in the podcast simply does not work at all, many podcasts just don't download or play, period. Too bad. I deleted it from my Droid and downloaded another application that's not nearly as good in terms of interface and usability, but at least it works.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-10366706129991767252010-08-23T12:02:15.834-07:002010-08-23T12:02:15.834-07:00Google really needs to try harder in this field.

I was hanging on to an old 2GB iPod Nano for this purpose because I hated the way my BlackBerry handled multimedia.<br /><br />When I got my Droid, I moved over to Google Listen, and I have been very pleased so far. My only complaint currently is that when I manually add a new feed, it only gives me 10 episodes. Naturally, if I want to listen to an entire 34 lecture class, just getting the last 10 episodes isn't going to cut it.<br /><br />Still, I like the interface. It is easy to use. Adding subscriptions is super easy. <br /><br />I would love to see web based management of subscriptions and listen queues.Jon F Hancockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05546465671530150884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-1750603539166130642009-11-23T02:21:23.031-08:002009-11-23T02:21:23.031-08:00Will support for video come at some point?Will support for video come at some point?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-65993302969535162832009-11-10T23:33:19.970-08:002009-11-10T23:33:19.970-08:00Google's Listen app is not perfect but for bei...Google's Listen app is not perfect but for being in beta phase it works great.

There are several things wrong with it. The most shocking is how horrid the search is. I can't find any of the podcasts that I listen to. <br /><br />They could easily make up for the search fail by giving us the ability to enter the RSS feed of our favorite podcasts. But that feature doesn't appear to exist.<br /><br />I noticed that when you click on an RSS feed for a podcast via the browser it will ask if you want to use Listen to open it. That works great, but not all links are recognized. I am not sure yet, what format the links have to be in to be recognized.<br /><br />In any case, I am not impressed. Any other company and this app wouldn't get off the ground. But for a search company, I list this as an epic fail.StevenDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14111031866487196271noreply@blogger.com
