Sorry, if you’re wondering when the next episode of PIAVP is coming. I’ve made several recordings, and am now in the process of editing the next episode. Coming soon …

Episode 1

Yes. It’s up

Odeo sucks!

Bah! Odeo sucks.

I’ve created a “podcast” called “Political Ideas and Values”. I’ve uploaded my first mp3 file.

Odeo knows about both. But whatever I do, I can’t persuade it that my mp3 file is in that podcast. It says there’s no audio in the podcast, and that the mp3 file isn’t part of any podcast. And I have to go to work so I can’t keep messing around today …

Good thing I believe in soft launches … piavp will be ready when … it’s, like, ready …

Update : looks like I’m not the only one.

Update 2 : But I used the workaround of linking to the same file on the Odeo site as if it were a file on another site. And that works. Silly, but it works.

Update 3 : Maybe it’s working now

Episode 1

Here’s the first podcast in the new series. The first part of a fascinating interview with Dan of TDAXP.

Pilot Episode : dan tdaxp (part 1)

Note : You can use comments here on this blog-post to talk about anything Dan (or I) am saying.

If you want to check out dan’s site, it’s www.tdaxp.com. I was particularly intrigued by him when I first came across his political simulation project.

We go live!

After a little bit more editing than I was expecting, I’m really happy that I managed to get the first podcast up.

Here’s the channel at Odeo.

Although, for some reason it doesn’t seem to recognise that there’s audio there …

OK, still a few bugs in the system …

Hello world!

Welcome to the Political Ideas and Values Blog. This is the blog to accompany the Political Ideas and Values Podcast, which … er … doesn't quite exist yet. Come back soon, when it does, and things will be a lot clearer.
