Google reader + touchpad=awesome podcast client

[maxfieldd]

I was looking for an online way to manage podcasts - after being unimpressed with the selection of podcasting clients available in the app catalog - when I stumbled upon a great solution. Google reader supports audio RSS feeds and plays them in the reader website. It even lets you subscribe to podcasts that require passwords. It keeps them organized, it is easy to use and of course it works device to device.

The drawback is that you have to be online but I am almost never without a WiFi connection when using my touchpad. It is not a perfect solution but it currently works better than anything else I can find for the touchpad; short of going to each one of the feeds homepage.

If anyone has a better solution, let me know. For now, though, it is g-reader for me and my podcasts!
