Realtors are showing my building right now so I had to evacuate for a few hours to avoid the disruption. I’m at Starbucks, $10 for a day of wifi. Right about now I’d like to be working and listening to profiles on my Nano, which I forgot to bring so I am dealing with what they call adult contemporary.
I’ve got my Powerbook here, but what if I had left it at home and brought along my iPod? How would I remember or rate people I’ve listened to while I’m jogging, walking or sipping a latte? I see at PodDater that you can rate people on the site, but what about when you’re untethered?
Answer: use the song rating feature on iPods. I don’t have a video iPod but I bet the feature exists for videos too. This feature is usually accessible via the scroll wheel, much like the volume control.
Rate a bunch of people and when you return, sync up with Itunes, which should upload the ratings to PodDater.
I like walks in the rain, 2 Stars, I have 9 cats, 1 Star, I love my Powerbook, 4 Stars, my friends call me quirkydelicious, 5 Stars.
I have no idea of PodDater is thinking about this, if they use it, just put $25 on my Starbucks card as a token of appreciation.

Thanks. Great idea. We’re putting that thought into action.
Also we are hard at work rolling out lots of new features and streamlining the experience. We’re excited about the PodDater Studio. A place to record your video right on the site and attach it to your profile.
Thanks again.
Where do we send the Starbucks card?
