GABCAST Up and Running!

For those of you who thought I'd be satisfied with just my blog - with it's pictures and blog blurbs and other stuff only I find interesting...guess again.

Gabcast offers audio for your blog. So if I want to record a greeting or read excerpts from my plays or other writings or feature original music by my friend Nick Perkins of Aerosol Halo (currently featured) or Rick Bell from It's Only Roy or Luke Hranicka out in Fargo, the Gabcast feature located on the right panel (scroll down) allows me to do just that. And you can subscribe to it so it's readily available on your blog or Myspace.com site.

If you find maneuvering through blogs daunting - don't. Just hit the arrow pointing to the right and you're ready to go. After listening to an audio blog, the screen should scroll to allow you to choose others. If not, hit MENU and then the KJJI next to the orange tab - that will refresh the site. You'll know the site's ready to go if you see a KJJI under the menu and an RSS in the top right corner. Clicking on either one of those takes you off-site, where you can listen to the audio Gabcasts in different locations. I may have just made it sound harder than it really is.

The cool thing about this is that it's a feed - so when I record something via the Gabcast site, it automatically feeds it to my blog, updating your choices in seconds.

Enjoy.
