Podcast #38: Petteri Koponen and Joe Walnes, Google Picasa Web Albums for S60
This week I was joined by Petteri Koponen and Joe Walnes from Google. They had some very exciting S60 related news to share about Google’s Picasa Web Albums for S60. Sorry by the way for the audio quality not being optimal at times. We did this podcast using Skype since me and Petteri were in Finland and Joe in London. Hope you enjoy the podcast!

Your link to Picasa Web Albums is bad… It’s missing the “b” on picasaweb
Thanks for letting me know. It’s fixed now!
Something is really wrong with the feeds when accessing them with Nokia Podcasting. The first messages listed are 600 days old, the newest ones have no date and are somewhere at the end of the list…
I’m checking the feed right now and try to fix the problem with the podcasting app. Will let you know when it works again.
Whew…I thought I was the only one who is bothered by that problem with the feed!!
Hi guys! What version of the podcasting app are you using? I’m using the version 1.00.3 and that seems to work fine. I’ll try to fix the feed a bit to see if it helps.
