Over on my Blue Box podcast website, I have easy subscription buttons that let you subscribe with iTunes, Yahoo!podcasts or Podcast Pickle (as well as providing a link to the standard RSS feed). There are probably 359 other services that I could put up there, but to be honest, those were the three I put up there when I started the site 1.5 years ago… and I’ve never really bothered to add more. From a design point-of-view, I didn’t really want to clutter up the sidebar with a zillion buttons… and in fact sometime I may go back in and clean the buttons I have there up a bit.
In any event, a listener wrote in and asked if we could add a button there so that folks could easily subscribe with podnova. Which of course made me ask the obvious questions – what is podnova? how many people use them? why should I give them some of my precious sidebar space?
Being a JuiceReceiver user, I was intrigued to see that podnova was started by one of the original Juice developers, but still, I’m curious to know more. Do any of you reading this use podnova on a regular basis? What do you think of it? Should I add a button to subscribe via the site?
