Nice Showcase of Work!

Kudos to all of you who showed off your podcasts at our last meeting. You all have done a great job and it's obvious that you have been working really hard on this. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work as we progress...keep up the good work!

Accessibility Issues

I attended a presentation by Rich Baker from the Institute for Disability Studies (IDS) this past Wednesday. It turns out we need to make our podcasts accessible for those with disabilities in very specific ways.

Four Video Podcasts

We converted four of my Camtasia tutorials into video podcasts! I downloaded them to my iPod and since they are so short it didn't take long at all. The text is a little small on the tiny screen but I think they still work pretty well!
