Several of you requested information on podcasting. The procedures for podcasting in either a Mac or Windows environment appear below. Let me know if you have any questions.
Mac Computers:
Option #1:Garageband
* When the main screen comes up, pick "new podcast episode"
* Name your podcast
* Click on the track based on your gender
* Click Record to record and Stop to stop
* Once the track exists, you can highlight sections and delete if you need to edit
Option #2: Skype
Skype is available for 29.95 per year at www.skype.com
* Once you download and install Skype, you'll have the ability to make phone calls to any cell or land line phone from your computer
* It works best with a headset so that your voice doesn't feedback through your speakers when you're talking
* You can also download an add-on application for Skype called "Call Recorder for Skype." It is available at:

This add-on, priced at $14.95, will enable you to record calls on Skype and save them to your computer as mpeg-4 files.
