Introducing Podcasting continued ...

Hi Folks,
Greetings. Here are the three episodes in my first podcast series.
The topic of this series is using audio in education.
Episode 1.1 : Introduction to using Audio Files ( mp3 6.2MB 6m29s ) pdf
Episode 1.2 : Creating your own Audio ( mp3 5.8MB 6m24s ) pdf
Episode 1.3 : Assessing the Benefits ( mp3 7.0MB 7m08s ) pdf

These were created using Mac Garageband and a USB microphone, copied to iTunes, then dragged from iTunes onto the desktop, as m4a or mpeg4, then Switched to mp3 and uploaded to here, and to my podcast rss feed on iMac Podcasting at feed://homepage.mac.com/paulkawachi/Series1/rss.xml, as you can see here . Yesterday, I uploaded also a wav version of Episode 1.1 at 68.6MB --- a ten-fold memory size in contrast to mp3 at 6.2MB. So, for those of you without Quicktime, download the free Quicktime player here.
I have also uploaded these three mp3 audio files to Odeo and the podcast feed to those is here .

or if the above links don't work (so much trouble with Odeo), then simply paste the feed view URL http://odeo.com/channel/381313/view into your blogbridge or other podcast aggregator.
Now I must check if the iTunes-store can access these feeds for public subscription, and if I can download ? the series to my brand-new iPod . . .
All Best Wishes
Paul

Introducing Podcasting

Hi Folks,
Well it has been a long day, and I am looking forward to another busy day tomorrow.
Here, I am pleased to introduce my podcast to you.

The first series has three episodes about using audio files in education.
Episode 1.1 : Introduction to using Audio Files ( m4a 9.1MB 6m29s )
Episode 1.2 : Creating your own Audio (not yet published)
Episode 1.3 : Assessing the Benefits (not yet published)

My podcast graphics for putting into iTunes is above - that was yesterday's work.
Below you can listen to Episode 1 which I created using Mac Garageband and a USB microphone (my first effort, so please don’t knock it), copied to iTunes, then dragged the file onto the desktop, as m4a or mpeg4. All this was done off-line, on a laptop with battery power (just to illustrate the power of Mac over online-Odeo-with connectivity-problems). I then uploaded the m4a Garageband file to iMac Podcasting and the feed is at feed://homepage.mac.com/paulkawachi/Series1/rss.xml
I then converted from iTunes m4a audio file to mp3 and wav, and uploaded these to my website. The direct links to the mp3 audio-file (6.2MB) is here, and to the plain-simple-PC wav audio-file (68.6MB) is here. For deaf readers and 508-compliance, here is the script-text as pdf.
Enjoy listening to my podcast !

I will podcast Episode 2 and Episode 3 tomorrow, and test out Odeo for a comparison and talk to you later.
All Best Wishes
Paul
