Pod à porter – neckband for iPod shuffle

shuffleneckband 370x277 Pod à porter   neckband for iPod shuffle

In a time when it’s all about multi-touch technology and the ability to download apps, the iPod without a screen is oft forgot.

While surfing my usual haunts on these, our interwebs, I came across the Pod à Porter. It’s a neckband that attaches to the top of your iPod shuffle and channels the earbud cable around a rigid loop that you can hook around your neck.

Pod à porter is the easiest way to wear your music – even if you’re not wearing much. No more headphones dangling by your knees; no more ripping the buds from your ears when you take off your jacket.

The Pod à Porter sells for US$ 27.001 and is simple, but awesome.

Radio to crash the podcasting party

In an effort with Los Angeles based Bridge Ratings, Loyal Ears has designed a turn-key application that will use radio’s reach of 285 million listeners to bring free or pay podcasts to the masses. The technology provides radio stations with a platform for free podcasts with sponsorship opportunities or an on-demand model with download revenue. Armed with monthly research from Bridge Ratings, Loyal Ears will also offer a highly valuable advisory service offering new ways to advance commercial podcast efforts. Loyal Ears plans to roll out their client stations in April 2005.
