November 07, 2005Feedster Getting into Podcast SearchesFeedster last week started up a new section of their site for podcast searching. You can play with it at http://podcasts.feedster.com/. As you can see at the front page you can search by episodes or by shows. Currently over 38,000 podcasts are being indexed, and the service is in beta. I did a search for autism and got nine results for episodes, and five results for shows. If you use Feedster at all these search results will look very familiar. You can get results by relevance or by date, and results include description, snippet/description, and links to the RSS feeds. And you can save your search results as RSS feeds, which as far as I know you can't do with Yahoo Podcasts. (Ppllllbbbt.) Interesting: Yahoo Podcasts has fewer series results for autism, but far more episode results. It would be nice if Feedster offered you the ability to search for both episodes and series at the same time.
