Would very much like to see this tutorial. Seems to be gone now. Is there an alternative?

Yes, it is this first step you mention, posting the audio file onto Wordpress so that the RSS aggregator can find it that has puzzled me and all my IT guys.

Sure would like a manual to Wordpress. The WPCodex has not been helpful and so far I have not found anyone who is familiar enough with it (podcasting on Wordpress) to answer simple questions.

Thanks.

Thank you for all of the tips! This is a great resource for podcasting and the info about uploading to a different server is well noted. Thanks!

Thomas,

I haven’t used the Internet Archive in some time now because of the issues I mentioned in this post. You might want to look into ourmedia.org to host your files for you. I tried them a couple of times. They were a little less frustrating than the Internet Archive.

I’m in the fortunate position that I have a friendly hoster who is happy to host my mp3 files for me gratis so this is no longer a concern for me.

Hi,
Internet Archive is actually quite frustrating. Can’t access file anymore. Don’t know why. Yes, I’m new to this. I also cannot get a RSS feed. Can anyone help me out…?
Regards, Thomas

Followed your instructions as best I could. Did a little ad-lib but you’ve been a great help.
Internet Archive is confusing. Not sure how to manipulate file and the stream doesn’t work with their flash player and my mp3. But I did get it up and it’s linked to my blog.
Still don’t get the RSS thing.
Also, Internet Archive had my file published within minutes and not the 24 hrs mentioned above.
Will be learning by doing for quite some time.
Thanks again,
Thomas

I've been working on a plugin for wordpress that allows you to easily cache your podcast using Coral. In my experience, coral has been pretty good. Anyway, the plugin is available over at http://theblogthatnoonereads.tunasoft.com/coralize/.

[...] In my how-to post about podcasting, I mentioned that it was possible to use the Internet Archive to host your podcast and video blog files free. The problem with that solution is that at the time it took over 24 hours from submission of a podcast to having it approved. [...]

I’m still looking for a way of automatically uploadng web-hosted content into archive.org. I run a number of podcasts – it would be cool if I could have archive.org automatically cache stuff in the same way that coral cache does. If only coral were not so unreliable.

I just left another comment on Chris’s post – instead of uploading to the Internet Archive and waiting 24 hours, use Ourmedia.org, they are working with the Internet Archive, and your files get stored there, but the time betweeen upload and availiability of your file is minutes not hours. (At least it has been this week as they’ve been improving the system.)

That’s a very legitimate concern Chris – that and, as I mentioned in my update 2 on this post, the fact that there is a 40mb limit on free posts will have me looking again at the Internet Archive option!

Yes podblaze is an excellent alternative. The one problem I have is one of longevity. The Internet Archive is a project with numerous forms of financial backing and stands a very good chance of lasting, since it is an not-for-profit archival project.

Podblaze will be looking to make money somehow off this service, which is not a bad thing mind you, but that means that there is a very real chance that 6 months down the road their operating costs begin to outweigh their revenue stream.

What happens to your podcasts when they have to close doors?

Liam,

thanks for the kind remarks and the podblaze tip – I’ll check that out and point it out to Chris Davis,

Cheers,

Tom

Nice Podcast Tom, music blends in really well. Excellent for your first time using audacity. Another place to upload your podcasts (for free) would be on http://www.podblaze.com which uploads straight away.
