no freakin' idea.
"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.

It's like an audio blog entry/journal article that others download and listen to.

from what i gather...you make an xml (rss) page with the info of each podcast. you name the current mp3 youre linking to current.mp3 so an aggregator (such as itunes) can find it from the same link by checking the date on the rss file. then i suppose you rename each one with the date to archive it on your site.

can anyone confirm this?

ok, so more clarification i suppose.

you submit a feed url (http://www.domain.com/podcast/podcast.xml)
you update the podcast.xml file whenever you upload a new podcast to your server, and the aggregator looks at the publish date and directs subscribers to it. i suppose at that point for archiving purposes you can link to old mp3 files on your server, but those wont be rss files.

now ill want to learn how to stream live, then upload it as rss. :lol:
