Week 10: Podcasts and Vidoes

PODCASTS: I have listened to podcasts in the past in regard to library training. And have also received the odd email with podcast files. Today I found a podcast on ancient egypt. After listening to it I added the rss feed for Archeorama podcast to my googlereader page. The only thing I didn't like is that once again you need to subscribe. However after exploring i discovered that if i add the rss link to googlereader i can listen without subscribing to a podcast service, so I also added a hip hop music rss feed. Cool stuff.

YOUTUBE: I have used YouTube for watching music videos. Fantastic. also have watched some TV episodes. Watched a couple of library videos - very funny. Haven't worked out how to embed a video yet. will try a bit later

  1. Keep at it! It took me awhile to work out how to get a Youtube video up onto my blog. Finally worked it out..Mark sure the "Edit Html" tab is activated in the "Create Posts" box. Then cut & paste the embedded stuff on the Youtube page of the video you want to post. Hope this works.
