Yes! With Evoca Express you can create a recording using any phone, Skype, or our in-browser Flash recorder (EvocaMic) and then post the recording into your blog or website. It’s a simple copy/paste of the HTML code that we auto-generate for every recording. We also enable you to copy/paste your own EvocaMic into your blog or website to invite comments by your readers. They arrive in your Evoca Express account as private messages that you can screen and make public any time. See: https://www.evoca.com/signup/signup.jsp?slField=1 to sign up. You can start with a FREE member account for 30 days with 15 minutes of recording time, then convert to a PRO account for $29.95/year. The PRO account provides 180 minutes (3 hours) which is likely what a Podcaster would need. You can then add ‘buckets’ of 180 minutes for only $9.95/year. Also with a PRO account you can add a Virtual Voicemail number for your audience to hear your custom welcome voice prompt and record directly into your account by phone. See: http://www.evoca.com/links/virtualvoicemail.jsp. We can provide phone numbers for over 45 countries, including Ireland! Finally, if you want to brand and customize Evoca features for your blog or website, we offer Evoca Media Services. Learn more at: http://www.evoca.com/services/evoca-media-services.php. It’s a robust, scalable media platform delivered through a RESTful HTTP API with integrated VoIP telephone services and self-service configuration, customization (Flash players and recorders; voice prompts), and media management.

Wow - this looks like just what I need! I’ve been thinking of podcasting, but hesitant to get started because it seemed like it could get complicated. If this takes the complications out, then there goes that excuse… (-: Thanks for the tip!

No, that’s OK Tom. When I took a look at their site I saw four country flags by the “call to record from” element. Canada, US, Germany and Ireland. We look a little out of place there without UK, so I guessed there may have been some link. Add that to the fact you claimed an exclusive on the Irish scoop and I thought maybe you know someone; someone local. Ah well. I put 2 and 2 together and got 5. Duh. Well at least they have an Irish number. I seems to be a very cool service.

Sorry Eoghan for the mis-understanding, my fault entirely.

The headline I used for this post was ambiguous - I should have titled it “Evoca Launches Irish tel Number” or something like that.

Andrew is correct, it is not that there is an Irish connection. Merely that they now have an Irish dial-in number.

i don’t understand, mate. The irish connection? I think Evoca is just trying to hit a global market as they also list some numbers for Canada, Israel, Berlin, and maybe Japan? Have you tried it yet? It’s cool.

Excellent. I’m interested in the Irish connection. Is there one?

Lovely interface too. The phone-in option is genius as I don’t have access to a microphone.

Within moments of this post, we have released the phone number in Ireland. You will find it in the upper right-hand corner of every Evoca page. The number is 01-657 5601.

Yes, we use the caller ID to quickly identify each member when calling in. If, for some reason, the caller ID is blocked, we provide the capability to manually enter the registered phone number and pin on the phone keypad.

Cheers.

I couldn’t find any phone numbers on the website. What’s with that? Also I read in the non-extensive FAQs that the system uses CallerID to identify you, what happens if the line doesn’t do CallerID? I did consult the FAQs but …
