TWG Podcast?
« on: February 08, 2005, 07:27:59 PM »
So now that I'm an iPod nerd, I was wondering if we could push the boundaries here a bit and experiment a bit with Podcasting.

I was thinking of doing an interview with a friend of mine who is big into the RPGA and also a published gaming author.  Some sort of "Nerdery Live!" set up.

All I'm lacking is a mic, which is easily remedied.  Just wondering if this was something there is interest in.

I don't know anything about podcasting. Is it iPod specific, or is it something as simple as putting a sound file up?

Yeah, I saw you two talking about that, Jeffe. What all is involved in podcasting?

I think Tage wants some more technical info about the requirements. Can you supply it?

I'm currently writing some theme song lyrics. I'll probably make up a simple tune to go with it (about all I'm capable of) but if someone else wants to compose the music, I'm all for letting you take over.

none for TWG, its basically an MP3 clip that some of our less handy enabled computer users can download to their players or music programs and listen too... they can set an RSS browser to get it automatically...

All we have to do at twg is put a link to where it is on the host...

Does podcasting require an RSS feed then?

Well to recive it as a podcast yes... but not to send it, at least not for what I have in mind... actually all it requires for you guys is a link to the casts on the site Erics gonna set up... we can do the rest of the RSS stuff from there...

Think of it as a PODcast link page...

People interested in podasting can download Ipodder for free, or just click on the link and download the mp3 files....

If your theme song has slant rhyme, SE, so help me I'll take it out of your hide.

Setting up an RSS feed is easy enough. Do you need RSS .92 or RSS 2.0?  I can send SE the PHP file that generates and manages it until TWG 4.0 (which will have RSS feeds).
