So sorry. I've tried uploading the full version but Youtube rejects it as too long. I'm going to have to give up as it's taking a lot of my resource and I've got to get to bed - flight in a few hours.
I will get on top of Youtube for next week. Anyone's welcome to upload this week's if they have an account that can post longer than 10mins.
Vimeo doesn't have a time restriction, their free version has a 500MB/week upload limit (1 video/week), which should be more than enough for this: http://vimeo.com/join
Sorry, I've tried. I found nothing searching for Zune Marketplace. Then I searched around and found this page - http://social.zune.net/podcasts/ but it says "Sorry, the requested page is not available in your region." I clicked 'Sign in' and tried to create an account but it's just redirecting me in an endless loop. Feel free to submit the RSS through your own account if that's possible.
If you've still trouble with it, I've submitted the RSS. Usually it's reviewed and appears in marketplace after few days. Still then users can just add the RSS in the podcasts section of the Zune player.
Your Northern English Accent sounds very professional. Like a BBC news correspondent. Don't ever worry about it. Accents in general stand out and make a person very memorable.
I find it very helpful when the voice talent of a podcast consists of different accents, or at least very different voices so you can tell the speakers apart and get a sense of distinct personalities.
One of my favorite thing about the Tested.com podcast is Gary Whitta's Southern English accent.
This podcast is amazing. Exactly the type of news I want to hear. Just in case you don't check hn every day (or even every couple of days) this podcast has you covered.
Any chance of a write-up on how you managed to get this together so fast? Id especially like to know the software used and how you managed to get organise the guest speakers as the time zone difference must have been a challenge. 3 days for this an impressive feat and I will definitely be a regular listener.
Added to PocketCast on my phone. (Highly recommend that app for both video and audio casts. All I had to do was do a search for HNPod and it quickly found the stream and added it to my subscriptions.) (For the lazy http://pocketcasts.com/)
I'd prefer a video podcast, even if there's just talking involved. I can't just listen to something anymore, because I'd have to do something else in the same time, and then I won't be able to focus on listening. With video I can just watch it.
Podcasts make cooking and cleaning and yardwork so much more bearable for me. Sometimes I get completely engrossed and wind up doing a far deeper clean than necessary just to have an excuse to continue listening.
But I absolutely can't code while listening to people speaking, my brain is just too old for that.
Agree especially on the drawing. I've been working on improving my drawing/design skills and find it works extremely well to listen to podcasts and sketch at the same time.
Audiobooks & podcasts are my most used mode of learning. I generally take a walk while listening to the talk. Its a little exercise and learning at the same time.
- Maintaining a regular route helps you focus.
- make sure the entire route is safer
Try speeding it up. For information-centric podcasts where comic timing isn't central, I find speeding up actually increases my retention, even when doing something else (I like to walk and do chores). Works like a charm for audiobooks too.
I had previously registered for the email notification, and I received the notification at 9:28 PDT this morning. It's inspiring to see how fast you took this from idea to implementation. Well done.
I'd like to apologize for the echo from my side. I have a quality mic, but had to change rooms at the last second and didn't realize the acoustics were that bad or I would have tweaked the sensitivity or grabbed a more forgiving mic.
Anyone with an iOS device who is new to listening to Podcasts, I strongly suggest buying the Podcaster app. It's just a few bucks and about 100 times nicer than using iTunes on the phone or on the desktop.
Yes, I know that "better than iTunes" damning with faint praise.
Despite this not being in iTunes yet, you can still subscribe by going to "Advanced" -> "Subscribe to Podcast" and pasting the RSS feed: http://www.hnpod.com/episodes.rss
I really enjoyed this. It's short and doesn't meander with stupid jokes or idle chatter. Good work, especially by the moderator. Can't wait for the next one.
There is, however, a limit to the number of podcast I can listen to.
I simply wanted to voice my opinion that I choose a different podcast over this one for the same subject area - and I thought this was worth say publicly because there are others out there that maybe don't know about the other podcast and could benefit from my mentioning them. That is all.
This is a nice idea, and I'm sorry for being so negative, but: isn't this just a summary of HN news & comments, but in audio and we can't vote and most of us will already know the subjects (since we have read the links on HN)?
Google gives some easy ways to do it: http://www.google.com.hk/m/search?q=mp3%20to%20youtube&c...
