Podcast Workflow I have been asked about my podcasting workflow. This article outlines how and what equipment I use to record the e-Learning Stuff Podcast. This is only one way in which to record a remote panel based podcast, and I am sure there are numerous other ways in which to do this.

This service is designed to provide the web community with piece of mind knowing that any link referred to by mcaf.ee is secure, containing no malware and not pointing to a malicious site. To celebrate this exceptional service, we’ve developed a Firefox add-on which makes using this service a breeze. After installing this add-on from the Firefox add-on site, you will be able to right-click either on the page in any location to receive a short URL for the current page or on any link in the site and receive a short URL for the link target. After shortening the URL, two popups will be displayed, one informing you of the long to short URL transformation. This popup includes a link to McAfee’s trustedsource.org portal, allowing you to gather even more pertinent security information.
