WiFi and hotels, redux Hotel Chatter has posted their lists of best and worst WiFi hotels for 2004. Based on my limited experience, I can confirm that Marriott indeed belongs on the "worst" list, and Best Western belongs on the "best" list. Thanks to Gizmodo and WiFi Network News for the pointers. 6:51:50 PM    Questions? Comments? Flames? []

Podcast client upgrades Both iPodder and iPodderX have released significant updates. Both now include built-in tools for adding podcast feeds directly from the ipodder.org directory. And iPodderX is contributing "Top Picks" and "Most Popular" categories to the directory. After a not-very-positive review of iPodderX a few weeks ago, I've found more to like about this podcast client. August and Ray have done good work cleaning up the UI, adding the directory tool, addressing issues. I'm willing to admit the possibility that my earlier dissatisfaction was more likely due to user error and impatience than to anything wrong with iPodderX. I recommend it, even now that the developers are asking real money for it. (Full disclosure: as an early contributor, I received a comp upgrade, thank you.) 6:43:43 PM    Questions? Comments?
