Now I'm working on adding podcasts to my weblog.
Now I'm working on adding podcasts to my weblog. Incredibly easy. It was only about four lines of code. Turns out that podcast is just a fancy name for anybody who uses RSS 2.0 'enclosure' tags to link to audio files.

The harder part is coming up with audio files to podcast. Again I have a potential solution... In about fifteen lines of code, I can take any of my daily entries and convert them into audio files with a text-to-speech converter. The voice is a bit robotic, but it works. A talking blog. Right now I'm testing it all. Maybe I'll be able to show you some samples soon.
