Mourning the passing of jPod

After Firefox crashed on me last night I did some quick web research and found out that Firefox 2 runs on Centos without any fancy gyrations required. By then it was too late to late to rewrite my post on the demise of jPod.

I started watching jPod on the CBC website because I'm finding it more difficult to keep track of when shows are on since I stopped getting a weekly TV magazine. When watching online you sometimes don't notice when a show goes away. It turns out that jPod was cancelled at the beginning of March though I didn't hear about it until much later. It was a quirky show and I guess that it didn't appeal to enough of the CBC's audience. It's death knell was probably sounded when CBC moved it to Friday night which is usually a television black hole which also turned out to be the case here. jPod, you will be missed. You can still catch it on the CBC jPod website but don't delay, CBC tends to pull these things down pretty fast.
