iTunes podcast sharing between computers

I listen/ watch a LOT of podcasts and mange them through iTunes on my primary mac. I find it pretty easy to keep current on the audio ones by listening to them on my iPhone while working throughout the day, but the video podcasts just seem to pile up because they require more attention and are harder to multi-task to. As a result, they rarely get watched on my iPhone, in fact I don’t even sync most of them.

So I have been looking for a workflow solution to keep current and get through the backlog of video podcasts. While I spend a good amount of time in the mornings and evenings at my primary mac I find myself using most of the screen real estate for photo processing or other tasks which doesn’t leave me with a lot of room to play the video podcasts on this machine. Moreover, unlike audio podcasts, I have found when playing a video in a separate window iTunes does not advance to the next video when the current one finishes playing. This requires a lot of back and forth between what I’m working on and iTunes.

My FitBit finally arrived!

It’s been a long time of waiting (not as much as some, thankfully), but I came home this evening to find my new FitBit waiting for me! Setup was a breeze and now I’m headed out to relax after the week. But I’ll post more details later. I got the FitBit to add to my personal data tracking which I’ve been drafting a series of posts about, hopefully I’ll be able to at least introduce the series in the next few days!
