Moved to the 1.0 version of iOS micro.blog app reminded of how nice the on-boarding is. No password. Email address get link to open. Log in to own blog with 1Password. Smooth.

Audio comment on the Microcast Sonant Thoughts – Episode 29: Focused

This is a quick try of an iOS workflow. The idea is to quote and comment on a podcast. The content was a one take job. Steps:

  1. Listen to podcast
  2. Copy URL to audio file (I grabbed it from my RSS reader FeeddlerPro
  3. Open in safari
  4. Save to Dropbox
  5. Open in Ferrite
  6. Trim to quote
  7. Add audio comment
  8. Save to iCloud
  9. Back in Safari upload to blog, create post etc

Could probably speed things up using workflow to create post.

Id love to see an app to simplify this. I don’t think it is really a practical solution. Much quicker to move to desktop.

Podcast mobile app idea: a podcatcher that lets you listen to a podcast and pull out a short section to make the basis of a ‘comment’ microcast. This is then posted to your site/somewhere else, either by the app itself or passed on to another app or workflow.

This post from over a year ago was cross posted to twitter from microblog. But did not go to micro.blog/johnjohnston not now in RSS feed. Can #WordPress occasionally temporarily add in old post to feed?
