New in Mobitype: AMR podcasting!
Got a very fruitful conversation with Loïc le Meur  this morning, about new features in Mobitype.
Loïc gave me an idea of some inexpensive, but extremely useful points. Some of them have been implemented this afternoon ;)))

Podcasting with AMR.

AMR is a new generation standard for audio/video encoding. Chances are that this is the standard in which your mobile phone saves microphone and conversation recordings. Widely used in the mobile world, it is far from being common to desktop users.
The idea itself was to convert .AMR to .mp3 on the fly as soon as they are uploaded to Mobitype. Some free libraries  and some hack  did the job ;)
In fact, Mobitype will keep both versions (.mp3 and .AMR), and cover the .mp3 file link with a nice podcast-looking thumbnail ;)

Post by mail confirmation.

Do you want to be sure your posting-by-mail have passed? Now yes, you'll get a confirmation mail, unless you desactivate it in the profile. The implementation is a bit lightweight by now, someone would like to be able to unsubscribe from annoying confirmation just by clicking to the link inside the mail, or recieve a live link to the new post... well, one cannot have everything at a time, that will appear a bit later.
Enjoy, and stay with Mobitype!
