Podcasts

I am a hardcore podcast listener and you know that I am sometimes also write some more or less interesting blog entries. I would love the capability to quote sections of certain podcasts to comment on them or to use them as a sources for some statements. But this is a real pain at the moment. You have to write down what the time was of the comment, import the podcast in garageband or any other audio editor at hand, make new file out of it, tag it, upload it and integrate it in you blog post. That means you will not do it, never, ever.

So what I want is a possibility to just jump back a couple of seconds, set a start marker, wait to the end of the quote press again to set an end marker, get the waveform displayed so that i can adjust the waveform by pinching it into the boundaries, than get a text field/Headline field write my short blog entry and than upload it directly from there or if I don’t have a proper connection, let iTunes upload it to my blog while syncing.

Is that asked to much?

I checking out Ecto from http://infinite-sushi.com/ to see if I can finally avoid the just of Firefox for blogging. It is just to slow. But Safari is not serving very good either so we will see what Ecto delivers.
