Breaking news and expert analysis on fast-moving AIM and LSE listed shares
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.
This is the first podcast using the Audioboom (BOOM) platform - if it sounds rubbish/does not arrive blame the IT klutz me not Rob Proctor. In today's offering I look at Haike Chemical (HAIK), Jiasen (JSI), Camkids (CAMK), ValirX (VAL) and a few other matters en passant.

No problem with that recording Tom!
Sounded better if anything.
Still no volume control on the playback widget though…
DUCK AND DIVE
As you will have instantly forgotten, I no longer listen to your Bearcasts on the grounds that they are too often irrelevant, self-indulgent, childish, boorish and inappropriate for a website that should be striving for credibility.
However, I made a partial exception in order to try out your new platform and here’s my report:
Audio quality: No noticeable difference
Pause control: New works fine; old would restart from beginning
Sound level: No visible sound level slider on old or new (on my PC/browser)
Bandwidth: Old and new both drop audio out while a content rich web page is loading
So it looks (sounds) like a marginal improvement – from bad to moderate.

Is there an RSS feed you can add to a podcast player for this new set-up?
I use BeyondPod on my mobile to download podcasts but it doesn’t seem to bring up new Bearcasts anymore. You can use the Audioboom app, but it’s pretty clunky and a bit of a pain to use that as well as a normal podcast player.

In Asia. No nothing. Why you pay for something not work.?
