Odeo is cool…sort of

I took Odeo for a test spin this afternoon and I’ll have to admit that for the most part I liked what I saw. It was incredibly easy to submit our podcast and they have a very cool and friendly user interface. (You can see our podcast up on Odeo at http://odeo.com/channel/6070/view.)

I did encounter a problem though when I went to listen to our podcast. For some strange reason the podcast played at a rapid rate making David and Seth sound straight out of a Chipmunks cartoon. It’s pretty humorous actually. I’m pretty sure this is a problem on their end as our feed works fine on Podcast Alley, iTunes, etc.

That issue and a couple of misspellings on the site were less than outstanding but for the most part it’s a cool site (Note: I haven’t had a chance yet to try out their Sync or Create tools. I hope to do that soon and promise to blog about it.) I’m not sure where exactly it will sit on the competitive landscape with iTunes-Audible-Podcast Alley-Podshow but it should be fun to watch the battle play out!
