Dear Get Glue Support Team,

I love your app and ability to check-in and get stickers.  It is a great idea.  But as a daily user and a guru, I have some suggestions to make your product even better and more used.

1.  You cannot get to the bottom of the screen to leave email feedback, etc on your homepage b/c the feed keeps refreshing.  You have to click check-in and then do it from that page.
2.  You need to add a category for podcast.  I listen to them everyday and am the guru for several.  However many podcast are not listed on your site.  I have suggested them, with no results.  Others have done the same.  There should be a way a podcaster can send you an email with the title, URL, and album art.

Just a few suggested shows:
Packer Fan Podcast http://mediavoiceovers.com/category/production/packersfanpodcast/
Christmas Memories Podcast http://mediavoiceovers.com/category/production/christmas/
Authentic Life Radio http://gspn.tv/category/all-shows/authenticlife/
Fighting Anorexia Podcast http://fightinganorexia.com/

Follow up after Podcast Answerman ep 242 was put on line:

Your service was talked about on http://www.podcastanswerman.com ep 242 .  This podcast has a large audience and the creator teaches others to podcast.  So adding podcasts to GetGlue would add more users to your service as well as having more podcasters promote you.

Suggestion from @JWilkers:

Jan. 04, 2012

In the past, GetGlue used a tool bar for building their database. Users could add items from Amazon, iTunes, Wikipedia and other supported sites. They abandoned that method last year because it was being abused. Basically, people could add an article to Wikipedia and have any topic added.

I know a few podcasters who’ve had luck getting their podcast added by contacting GetGlue support. Not everyone has been successful, however.

I suggest contacting them on Twitter: getglue

You may also want to contacting the CEO Alex Iskold on Twitter: @alexiskold I’m sure if enough podcasters get in touch with him he’ll make something happen.

I really enjoy using @GetGlue but they have room for improvement that will help podcasters outwww.geoffgentry.org/getglue/ @alexiskold

Update:

As of 1/14
The Packers Fan Podcast has been added to Getglue.  But there is still no consistant way to add podcasts and podcasters have no way of submitting themselves and their podcasts.  Getglue emailed users and asked for feedback and I let them know.  Come on Getglue!

Update:

As of 11/09
If you have issues with Getglue contact them at support(Replace this parenthesis with the @ sign)getglue.com or try (310) 425-9962   I have frustrations with their lack of ability to add shows and add podcasts.  But I do agree that the lack of ability to communicate with them is frustrating.

Final Update:

1/1/2015

Well GetGlue was bought and became TVtag stopped offering stickers, and “focused” on TV.  Then on 1/1/2015 was shutdown.  I myself have moved over to TVShow Time to keep track of the TV shows I watch and interact with folks.
