Hello world!  Here I am with my first ever pod cast.  The technology isn’t too complicated, but it has taken some time to get all the ducks in a row.  I’m dictating the text of this post using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8.  I had to reinstall this program since Florida, and I have to say it’s working much better than before.  There have been hardly any dictation errors, and I really think it’s going to save me a lot of time adding content.

Anyway, the podcast set up is pretty simple.  I’m going to dictate into Audacity and take the resulting MP3 and stream it from the servers here.  The same as I would a song.  I’m still going to write articles, especially brief ones, for the site by hand or using Dragon.  But being able to dictate verbally is a real nice plus — especially for a longer entry.

So let’s let her rip.  Here’s the podcast for September 12, 2006 detailing this past summer and fall.  And what’s in store for the immediate future.
