- Podcast player. Adds a sidebar where live bookmarks in a specific folder are displayed and considered as podcasts (a la Sage). Mockup.
- Three sections: podcasts, a playlist area, play controls, and currently played episode tag, if available.
- It could use the default media plugin (Windows Media Player, QuickTime, etc.) or embed an open source player like XSPF.
