Glad to see your back. I am looking forward to it being posted on itunes.
Yeah, it was fun to participate in the chat.
Greg, if you have a schedule for future FirstCasts, can you post it here?
When will this be up on iTunes for download?
we are having some problems with our rss feeds at the moment and I haven’t finished editing it yet. I hope to get it done tonight and you can download it from our site but it might be a few days till the itunes stuff gets sorted out.
For the newbies, can you give a description of FIRSTcast and why should we listen?
FIRSTcast is kind of like the ESPN analysts, discussing various facets of the game, the rules, and the events. That’s the best way I can think of to describe it.
It’s pretty much CD, in conference-call format. Experienced mentors/students/teachers discuss key points regarding the manual/updates, robots, award submissions, and the competitions. It’s really informative and fun to listen to, because there are a lot of things that are easier to explain while talking rather than in a post, and you get all sorts of different views from different geographical regions.
The show is now up on itunes. You can also download and listen to the show at www.firstcast.org
