Just joined so hello and an idea for the project ...   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #19 of 34 |

Hi there,

I'm excited about the existance of this group as i came up with this idea ina
branstorm
with some clients without knowing anythingabout mobcasting or evete blogger
audioblog
feature. a quick search and i found you guys....

so heres what i want to do - call up a telephone nbr and leave a voicemal
message which
gets uploaded to the server and updates both a web page and the podcast rss feed
(excuse me if i get some terminilogy wrong im pretty new to podcasting tech
itself). So in
one call i make content for the site and update all the subscribed casters - i
think this is
what yo guys are talking about in part atleast.

My initial thought was to use jconnect here in Australia - theres also http://
www.j2global.com for global groups. These services can email a wav file and is
FREE - so
yo ucould set yourself upa nbr and then we need to write some code to convert
the
attachment to a mp3/4 file or whatever the right format is and then upload to
the server
doingthenecessary XML/RSS malarky (im VERY fuzzy on all that but its the easy
bit isnt it?)
Also be nice to top and tail it with the usual podcast type sting as well.

seemed simple enough to me but i don't code much these days so i could be wrong!

Inetrested in your thoughts on this,

Dave Gravina
