The First Ever Experimental Awaretek Podcast is Now Online
The first podcast, "Agora", talks about the objectives of this new series of podcasts, but it also was a chance for me to figure out how to use the tools involved in making a podcast. I used Apple's GarageBand program (which is incredibly powerful), and then iTunes. For hardware, I bought a $19.95 microphone from Radio Shack and plugged it into the input jack on the back of my 2.5 year old PowerMac dual 800 MHz. tower. If anyone wants to comment on my first podcast, or discuss it in any way, please use the newly re-instituted and de-spamified Discussion Forum. Please be gentle. Or, on second thought, fire away with all guns blazing ;-))) One More Try at Creating a Spam-Free Discussion Forum
I always like to keep everything as simple and easy as possible, and that includes never requiring registration nor any information or log-in whatsoever; but the overwhelming amount of spam on the old forum killed it. The old forum actually had some nice discussions going on several topics, until the spam destroyed it. So, the only way these days to have a discussion forum is to require a simple registration (user name and password), so that's the new system. I hope to hear from some of you. Any Pythonistas out there/ Any Firedrop users? Anybody at all??? My experience is that the hardest part about creating a good discussion forum is that most folks hesitate to post until there are already ongoing threads; it seems nobody wants to be first ;-))). Someone make me happy, be first, on any topic, there are no off-topic subjects, at least for now. Just don't leave spam, advertisements, or messages containing obscenities. |
