  3. Thanks for addressing my question, guys. Like you, I *hate* when companies use the blanket “security issue” excuse to ignore complaints. Similarly I.T. support folks so quickly use the “V” word (virus) to explain away every ailment of a computer.

    P.S. The Nikon battery recall link can be found here: http://www.nikonusa.com/email_images/nikonusa/service_advisory/battery.html

  4. Hi,

    I listened now to all of your podcasts, and I like it!

    I am trying to startup my own podcast. I am looking around how to do. There are many ways and I tried to use Audacity. Switched than to Acoustica Mixcraft v2.01.
    It is still not the right software like I want it. I also found some cool sound effects at http://www.soundboards.com.
    I found the web site to create the xml file.

    I did not find, how to use / make show notes. I did not understand how to use podsafe as ads and as music. ….

    I wonder if you can tell me more about how to do. I guess you can have a show with all the things you are using.

    BTW, Evernote is a free program which would replace the one note. I use now Evernote for my scratch page, which can have notes in typing or in pen writing. After a while, listening to podcasts, I move it into “The Journal 4″ from DavidRM.

    Beside the above questions, I am courious where podcasting is going to. I mean it makes fun to produce a podcast, but it is waste of time, if you never make money with it. HOW can / will you make money at all?

    bye
