Called <a href=\"http:\/\/podgallery.org\/\">Podcast Gallery<\/a>, the online directory uses responsive design, making it usable on smartphones, tablets and traditional computers.<\/p> <p>I hit up the Podcast Gallery website earlier today and took it for a spin. In short: I&#8217;ll be using this for both my audio and video podcast needs going forward on all of my devices. It doesn&#8217;t hurt that I have a fair amount of storage available to me in both Dropbox and Google Drive of course. Here&#8217;s Podcast Gallery&#8217;s creator, Amit Agarwal, explaining how Podcast Gallery works:<\/p> <span class='embed-youtube' style='text-align:center; display: block;'><iframe class='youtube-player' type='text\/html' width='604' height='370' src='http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LcIytqkbdlo?version=3&#038;rel=1&%23038;fs=1&%23038;showsearch=0&%23038;showinfo=1&%23038;iv_load_policy=1&%23038;wmode=transparent' frameborder='0'><\/iframe><\/span> <p>About the only feature I see missing &#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/104968860811185326874\/posts\/9uL7qpFcwhK?utm_source=chrome_ntp_icon&#38;utm_medium=chrome_app&%2338;utm_campaign=chrome\">and I&#8217;ve already pitched it to Agarwal<\/a> &#8212; is the ability to subscribe to a show and have it automatically upload new episodes to my cloud storage.<\/p> <p>Yes, podcast subscription is a primary feature in any podcatcher, but I still see value in Podcast Gallery. The ability to watch or hear a podcast through a browser on nearly any device is a big plus. I&#8217;ve already streamed several audio and video episodes on an iPhone 5. And the Google Drive integration is perfect for Chromebook users; you can even set the media files to be available offline so they sync to your Chrome OS device.<\/p> <p>One potential holdup for some: to save favorite podcasts to your collection requires you to sign in via Facebook or Twitter. Some folks won&#8217;t use a service that is connected to a social network. Surprisingly, you can&#8217;t sign in with a Google account, which would actually make sense, given the Google Drive integration. Regardless, Podcast Gallery is a handy and refreshing take on podcatchers that smartly bridges mobile, desktop and the cloud.<\/p> <br \/> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\"
