Podcasting

[Andrew Schuetze]

Who has successfully published podcasts of their team. We decided that this would be a more effective means of updating our website with progress of the build season rather than a week by week posting of dry text on the site.

Question is what sites did you get it listed and how?
Here is our first installment which is current through week 1.5. To watch the podcast, I had to click on the link in the lower right corner to subscribe to this in iTunes.

Any and all comments are welcome as we will be filming installment two on this Thursday or Friday.

I suggest you watch their video podcast, has many more angles of the robot. I'm a bit confused by your arm. Is that a new arm or something from last year's Rack N Roll ?

Your confusion stems from the fact that we currently don't have an arm on the robot. What Ray referes to as the shooter is our piston to pop the trackball off of the over-head rack.

That is where I am having an issue. On a windows based machine, we were able to download the file and play it on Quicktime. On my iMac at home, I used a link on the URL page to subscribe to this podcast on iTunes. I don't know much at all about how podcasting is supposed to work.

I basically subscribed to the thread using google reader and then downloaded the mp4 video from the feed and played with VLC. Let me know if you need more details .
