What are Channels?
Much like a television, a Skinker can provide information through seperate “opt-in” streams. For example, the application could have a news channel, a sports channel and an entertainment channel. To select the channels that are of interest to you, simply access the Skinker’s settings and check or uncheck the boxes next to the channel names (if available).
Channels are a collection of podcast series. For example a news channel might include a podcast from the BBC, ABC News Nightline, and KRCW Left, Right, and Center. Each of the series publishes an episode on a periodic basis (i.e. daily). Channels come in handy, because you can set preferences at the channel level. For example you can choose to synch a collection of podcasts to your mobile phone by selecting preferences at the channel level, or you can choose to share channels with others by making them public (or in the near future available to specified groups). VoiceIndigo enables you to build channels, subscribe to other’s public channels, or just be lazy and use VoiceIndigo curated channels.

The channels on a chumby are like channels on a TV: they show a specific “line-up” of programs. The difference is that you choose the programs you want to see, in the order you want to see them, and for the length of time you decide. There is no limit to the number of channels you can create, or the number of widgets you put in a channel.
