Re: FIRST Podcast
 

Seems like a good idea, be prepared for heavy traffic however the podcast is set up though.

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

bittorrent? :D

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

bittorent is definetly one way, multiple servers is another. We could potentially setup a sourceforge style network, pick your server.

Anyone have any ideas for:
-The first podcast? Once we settle on this idea, you can build the rest of the show.
-Special Guests?
-The Offical Host? Or even better we could use a team of hosts like they do on radio shows.

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

Personally, I think that invisible multiple servers (IE, requests get sent to a non-busy server, but the user has no idea that's happening) is the best bet. Bittorrent isn't supported by many of the popular podcatchers. (IE, iPodder and bashPodder)

Oh!! I know! We could try to talk that Mars guy, um, what's his name, Lavery into coming on and talking about Marsy type things. ;)

Or the inventory of the Segway. He's cool too.

So far we have a bunch of volunteers, but we probably should only have 3-5ish hosts. Since they'll probably using some form of VoIP to create the podcast, they need to have broadband connections. Those are my only suggestions.

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

Ok everyone, I'm going to be in the IRC channel at 8:30 tonight, I'm hoping some of you will be there to discuss this, if I picked a wildly inconvenient time for everyone just yell at me and I'll fidn a better time, otherwise I hope to see you there.

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

Cool idea, I'll volunteer in any way possible.

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

Now I know how you guys all feel when you shoot ideas out with the knowledge that you don't have to do it. ;)

How about the FIRST Podcast Network .. Intsead of one regular show .. a variety of shows each with their own set subjects/topics and hosts.

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

8:30 in what time zone? :S (and I lost the web address, if someone can give me that please, thanks :) )

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

Look in my signature for either the IRC link or the java chat link.

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

We managed to pull together a pretty good chat earlier, and it looks like we may actually get this show on the road. We have 4 hosts right now and we're developing a site, but we're always in need of help big or small.

Some things that can help us (PM or IM me for further details and if your intrested)
-Topics to Talk about
-Questions! (We're planning on having a Q&A segment every show)
-Guest Speakers (you don't need to be famous, just be knowledgable in a certain robotics related field)
-Audio Editing Skills
-Hosting

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

For the hostage of the files themselves, i suggest a site called Ourmedia. Basically, they will host any and all media. You then give it a little Creative Commons license, decide what people can do with it, and thats it. Hosted forever, with [flashing text]unlimited[/flashing text] bandwidth.

All free and everything. I heard of this site on TechTV or something like that. I plan to use it as a host for the teams movie files this year.

I would totally listen to something like this though. Love podcasts, and FIRST.

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

nuts, I missed it...my mom couldn't find a better time for us to go out! oh well, I guess Connor...err....Ryan...uh..cdr1122334455 lol, kinda briefed us, so thats cool...are we going to have like music and stuff too or just talk show kinda stuff?

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

i can get us hosting and a webaddress. for the pod casts we could do mirroring so we dont get overloaded. if you dont feel like making the whole site your self try out mambo. www.mamboserver.com just make a template. gotta let me know right away about the web address/domain name. i can also edit the files as i do have some experience in that area.

Re: FIRST Podcast
 

Some Podcats (Security Now w/ Steve Gibson & Leo Laporte) are now using Google Talk for a free way to talk to people. I know I'm poor college student, and well, I'd like to maybe partake in the podcast through iChat AV or Google Talk.
