Quick and easy podcasting with an iPhone 3GS, GarageBand, and Posterous

by Steven Sande (Oct 28th, 2009)

I love podcasting. My first podcasts weren't really podcasts, just recordings that I made and uploaded to a website in the late 90's so that other people could listen to them. Unlike the podcasts we know and love today, there was no way to subscribe to all of the episodes that I recorded. When ...

Record a multi-participant podcast with GarageBand

by Dave Caolo (Dec 16th, 2008)

A few months ago, I started recording a podcast with some friends. At that time, our process was to gather everyone into one Skype call and record the session with WireTap Studio. That worked reasonably well, but there were a few problems. The quality of the end result was dependent on everyone's ...
