FIRSTcast coming soon!
 
Alright everyone get ready, for FIRSTcast!

That's right, an internet radio show just about FIRST.

Hosted by Me, Adam Richards and Conor Ryan, we'll go in depth in to FIRST and explore all aspects of the competition. We'll have special guests, tips of the week and other cool features.

We'll be launching September 5th so better get ready to listen!

FIRSTcast

Neat-o!!

Can we call in, like a talk radio show?

"...this is Andy, on a cell phone, in Kokomo..."

its going to be recorded basically in Ventrilo... (i'm talking about it on the chatroom now :P)

Re: FIRSTcast coming soon!
 
Calling in from actual phones is something we're working on, maybe in the future. Our current priority is getting the basics done and getting the show off the ground.

Re: FIRSTcast coming soon!
 
If anyone wishes to be a guest star on a future show, please drop a line to firstpodcast@gmail.com, with "Guest Star" in the subject line.

Thanks! :)

well Ventrilo has been working best for us, we tried Skype but quality wasn't so good. And sadly google talk doesn't have a confrence call feature yet. Keep watching for our episodes.

Don't forget to email your questions that we'll answer on the show for you to Firstpodcast@gmail.com

what about teamspeak... that has built in recording and its usually pretty good (if you have it on high quality.... lol)

Not to nitpick, but I think using the 'FIRST' in the logo as part of FIRSTcast is a violation of their logo guidelines. Can't wait to hear the first show.

(last point of page 16 in the Guidelines PDF)

Well Ventrilo was what everyone was using last night, Matt had a server handy. Its open source, and happened to work with my recording computer last night. So we're happy with it.

We've corrected the error with a temporary image until we can design a proper logo

FIRSTcast is coming... :ahh:

You should try to get the FIRSTcast into iTunes, just submit your podcast's URL and iTunes will consider it.

Matt Krass 29-08-2005 21:15

Re: FIRSTcast coming soon!
 
We're working on iTunes, and I mistyped the email before, I corrected it and here it is again. firstpodcast@gmail.com

Conor Ryan 04-09-2005 14:28

Re: FIRSTcast coming soon!
 
Just a reminder, its a little more than 9 hours till the release tonight.

We've all worked really hard and we'd like as many people to listen, so if you can download it and make us very happy. Download details are coming soon, but right now I cannot confirm nor deny if the iTunes directory will list us or not, but www.podcast.openfirst.org will have links and how to download it. And in case anyone is wondering its gonna be a mp3 and about 15 minutes long.

Alex Pelan's blog has a nice summary of the itunes xml tags you need to include based on an 'RSS Feed' I had created to get the iTrip frequencies out of the iPod Music list :D .

Re: FIRSTcast coming soon!
 
Man now I got to get an Ipod.
Is there any way that the first FIRSTcast can be put on the web so the rest of us non ipoder's can listen?

You don't need to have an iPod to listen to a podcast.

Yeah we're going to make it available via direct download and BitTorrent in MP3 format.

Re: FIRSTcast coming soon!
 
Speaking of direct download, our team has a file mirror set up here:

http://firstcast.roboticks408.com

No, you can't download the podcast yet (the file isn't even uploaded to the server yet), you must wait until it launches. We'll activate the link once FIRSTcast launches. :)
