It has been a busy few days for me. On Friday, I had the opportunity to meet the information professionals who staff the Editorial Research department (i.e. special library) of the Globe & Mail newspaper. It was a pleasant experience and interesting to see how this special library supports the organization's activities. I was mildly to surprise to learn that the department has an evening staff of students, but I probably shouldn't be given how the news business works.
I'm also making steady progress in publishing my first podcast. On Friday, I recorded the lecture and I've also put together some basic RSS to describe it. It is so invigorating to learn a new technology like this. I also very much enjoy the prospect of sharing content through podcasting technology. I hope this project will be continued by others when I graduate.

What podcasting software are you using? I've thought about this for some of my classes, but have never ventured too far into it.
It is a combination of items. I used a portable Sony recorder to record the lecture itself. Then I used a freeware program to convert to MP3. I've learned some RSS as well to get it ready.
In terms of production, I'm thinking to try Audacity and Levelator. Audacity is a general audio editor which is free. Levelator evens out volume levels.
