TMO To Go - Weekly Roundup

by

TMO to Go presents the Weekly Roundup, the best way to keep track of the headlines in Mac and iPod news. Each week The Mac Observer's Ricky Spero covers the territory, paints the picture, and fills in the gaps. It's like stealing notes after you missed the meeting. Or maybe five meetings. Consecutively.

The Weekly Roundup will be included in TMO's main RSS feed, and also in its own feed if you'd like to add it directly to your podcatching/ipodder client.

If you enjoy the podcast, we encourage you to head to any of the podcast outlets and rate us, review us, and vote for us! A vote for the Roundup is a vote for all things happy. And for humble and benevolent Roundup Anchor Ricky Spero to rule to world. You can find the Roundup at:

PodcastAlley.com Feeds (Vote - please!)

We're also at the iTunes Music Store and podcast.net.
