New Buttons & Tutorial Recommendation

If you will kindly turn your attention to the left-hand column you will notice two new buttons under my photo.  The first new button is a new Feedburner feed button–it is the prefered button if you want to subscribe to this podcast and have the mp3’s automatically downloaded into an ipodder client. It is the same feed as the buttons in the right-hand column. If you merely wish to subscribe to this blog for the witty insight it provides by have no interest in hearing me drone on about cooking then you may use the Feedburner feed, or the Motime RSS Feed labeled RSS2.0.  I would actually like to remove the Motime button as it is redundant,p but there is no way to without breaking all syndication.



The next button I have added is a small chicklet banner for The Podcast Outlaw Network–to quote them: "The Podcastoutlaws Network is a group of Podcasters who aim to shine the spotlight on the lesser-known Podcasts that don’t receive the attention that they deserve!"  They have a growing collection of podcasts from the fringe. I am happy to say they picked me right up.



Finally, I want to recommend this tutorial for anyone interested. It is a short Java Powerpoint Presentation about podcasting with an aim at making is easier for Professors to use and distribute over an Angel network. The first part of the presentation has some fantastic graphics about subscribing to an XML feed, etc. I was tempted to paraphrase and use some screenshots of my own, but David Passmore has done such a great job I think you should all just have a look and pass it on. Truly useful stuff, whether you’re a Prof. or not.
