\"\"The next podcast is up<\/a>. Today we talked about why we’re doing a podcast in the first place, took some questions\/suggestions from listeners, and got into a fight over whether programmers should learn C. Guess which side I took.<\/p>\n

There are some improvements, already.<\/p>\n

First, there’s an RSS feed, so you can subscribe and get each weekly podcast pushed to you. Here’s how you would subscribe using Apple iTunes, for example:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Run iTunes<\/li>\n
  2. Choose Advanced | Subscribe to Podcast<\/li>\n
  3. Paste in this URL: http:\/\/blog.stackoverflow.com\/index.php?feed=podcast<\/a><\/li>\n
  4. There is no step 4.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Now, depending on your settings (under Podcasts in Preferences), iTunes will download the latest podcasts and put them on your iPod when you dock it. You don’t have to do anything special. I’m not going to post here every time there’s a new podcast; you’ll have to subscribe.<\/p>\n

    A couple of people volunteered to help by typing up transcripts for the hearing-impaired, the pressed-for-time, and search engines. That’s a great idea! I opened up a\u00a0wiki<\/a> where anyone can contribute to the weekly transcript. If you can spare a few minutes to transcribe even a part of the podcast, that would be greatly appreciated by the many readers for whom an audio podcast is inaccessible.<\/p>\n

    Jeff has a new blog for the podcast at http:\/\/blog.stackoverflow.com\/<\/a>\u00a0where the podcasts are posted. You can subscribe to that using a normal RSS reader and see the show notes, links to things we mentioned during the podcast, and there will be comments links for discussion.<\/p>\n

    If you have any comments, ideas, or suggestions record a short MP3 and email it to podcast@stackoverflow.com<\/a>. If you don’t have the equipment to record an MP3, check out blogtalkradio<\/a>\u00a0to find a shockingly easy way to do it with a phone.<\/p>\n

    I’ve been working on a way to improve the audio quality. I don’t want to make any promises, but next week we’ll try to do the show using Skype to get better-than-POTS voice quality.<\/p>\n
