Listen buttons removed (then reinstated)

I’ve removed the Odiogo ‘listen’ buttons from the page. The servers responded very slowly and increased the loading time to around thirty seconds per page. The podcast is still accessible from the sidebar.

edit at 1923GMT: I’ve just received this Email from Bob at Odiogo:

Hi Jonathan,

As you mentioned on your blog, we did experience some network issues which caused a delay on some of our users’ blogs.  We’re happy to announce that the issue is now behind us and the service is back to normal. This kind of problem is very rare and it’s a pity it happened shortly after you deployed the Button on your blog.

It’s nice to know that out there there is someone who is willing to write to you in person to explain the problem. It goes without saying that the buttons have now been switched back on.
