AudioMerge

I spent some time this afternoon playing with a web based application over at AudioMerge.com essentially what the site allows you to do is put markers in your audio files and then link them to graphics that will pop up when you hit certain segment. This is designed for people that listen to your show on the web.

I was in IM with the developer and told him I would like to license a stand-alone version that would run on this website which with some enhancements you could use this to query information in the show notes or the RSS feed to display the various websites that are discussed. But it has to be so simple that from the time I get done producing my show to the time I am ready to have it available for the public would be minutes.

I don’t think it’s quite there yet and there is not a way you can buy the product currently to run it on your own website. I am of the thought process these days if my branding is not tightly integrated into the delivery vehicle I am not got to be pointing any of listeners away from this site. The trade-off at this point is not worth it. But for those of you that don’t mind sending your web based listeners to a portal to listen to your content then you should by all means check out [AudioMerge.com]
