I'm offline.
iTunes isn't running right now.. home . podcasting .
It took me a little while, but I've just discovered podcasting. This little
bit of 'net goodness allows anyone with a microphone to record a daily or
weekly show, and you can download it automatically to your iPod to take
with you and listen anywhere. These shows use XML files (RSS) to feed data
to a light client tool that organizes and downloads the material automatically.
I use PodSafe on my iMac.
My own little podcast features just a few tracks that I find interesting. I try to put this together a few times a week. I'm quite the U2 fan, and most of my selections are along the same lines, mainly alternative rock. The show features independent artists and the occasional live bootleg. The address for the RSS 2.0 XML file is http://stealthboy.dyndns.org/~msherman/stealthcast.php . Just copy and paste that into your favorite podcast management client. Check out ipodder.org for a list of clients you can use and docs on how to do this whole podcasting thing. For those interested, I produce this on a G4 iMac machine using GarageBand.
