43: Podcast Awards - Is Your RSS Validated? SURPRISE!

Dave gets notified about the Podcaster Awards and in checking eligibility discovers his RSS feed is NOT 100% valid. As the deadline is 7/15 you may want to get cracking on validating your feed, and alerting your listeners (that is if you care about these types of things - it might attract more sponsors if you were people's choice 2006).

Specials thanks to Curt from http://www.digitalslobpod.com for opening the show.

To check your feed go to www.feedvalidator.org

See everyone in California.

UPDATE: I sent an email to Todd Cochrane and he explained the RSS stipulation was to make sure a submission IS a podcast as some submit items that have NO RSS feed at all. Other sites such as clickcaster.com can only be viewed in itunes. Minor issues that can't be helped would be (more than likely) overlooked (I'm paraphrasing what Todd said).
