Airshow as a Foundation?

I mentioned Airshow as part of a foundation for retrocast. It’s a podcast player from Feedbin.com. The app can use Feedbin as a synch mechanism. In principle, the podcast feeds of Airshow could be a special part of the Feedbin API, unifying RSS feeds and podcasts within one service. Would be convenient for development purposes.

Unfortunately, it’s not looking particularly positive for a distinct Airshow API segment of the feedbin API. There’s probably a few ways to kludge it though, possibly by doing a podcast search on the feed source url and eventually tagging podcasts with a specific label. Might be a nudge to investigate a hackable open source feed aggregator.

Alas, the Airshow app is driving me up a wall with a hyper sensitive touch interface on iOS.
