I’ve installed the “Audio Player” WordPress plugin
It’s quite snazzy! A couple of my recording play back at double-speed with squeeky chipmunk voices, but most are ok. Check out the podcast category for several posts with audio in them. My ReidNews podcast for Fri Jan 14 2005 is a good one to try out.Noisy Powerbook
Tonight my shiny, new PowerBook started making noise. Feel free to give a listen.

vidcast of a drive to work
This is amazing.
Someone who drives from San Francisco to Apple and back each day is putting up
time lapse video
recorded looking out from the front window.
There is one entry where he speeds up the camera to normal for about 20 seconds as he passes
a care on fire.
Someone points out
that we now know where the cummter lives.
We can probably figure out when he is speeding and stuff too.
An interesting experiment in privacy.
I like how the sun glints off the lens in certain bits.

Ronnie on the piano
Here is a 23 MB mp3 file of our living room this afternoon, while Ronnie was practicing his piano. It’s unedited, so you get to hear some conversation in the living room, too. I kinda recorded it for my Mom, and I’ll give her the link in email too (not sure how often she reads this blog), so there are a couple of “Hi Grandma Celie”s in there.

CBC Radio Begins Podcasting
Tod Maffin writes that CBC will begin podcasting two radio shows: Quirks and Quarks and his own /Nerd show. This is *great* news. I used to listen to Quirks and Quarks religiously, and even had a cron script that fired up to download the latest mp3 version for me. However, the URL changed (which I updated) and then I reinstalled my OS and didn’t get around to re-setting-up the scripts so.. I haven’t listened for a while. Having a defined means by which one can automatically download scheduled shows is a BIG step forward.CBC’s /Nerd
You can subscribe to Tod Maffin’s /Nerd podcast and hear shows a couple of days before they are aired. Cool. In other news, the late nights continue. They should be finished by Wednesday. Ronnie is feeling a little sick, with a sore throat. I may have to take time off or work at home or something.ReidNews podcast for Fri Jan 14 2005
I recorded a podcast Friday on the way in to work. Let me know what you think! RN-2005-01-14.mp3 WordPress is *supposed* to automatically generate an<enclosure .. > tag for mp3 URLs.
Let’s see if it works!

Testing mp3 enclosures
I read that WordPress automatically adds<enclosure> tags in your RSS feed if you simply post a link to an mp3.
So here is a link to
my podcast from a while back.
Will WordPress do its magic?

Playing around with WordPress
So I’ve downloaded the latest version of
WordPress and
am trying it out.
I sucked in all old posts so everything is there.
I’m still working on the format, but I am liking the moderated comments.
Still have to figure out how to add content links to the RSS though, so I can podcast.
Pretty good, given how little time I’ve spent on it.
