Re: Tuesday, December 2, 2003 (Radio By RSS)
Hi Doc...Great subject as usual...hope you're feeling better. I just completed an attempt to duplicate some of the audio material I used for a recent live broadcast on Jazz 88 as enclosures in an RSS enabled weblog. I'm attempting to push it a little further by including Quicktime video in the RSS stream also. I'm trying to move in the direction you are pointing to: The Bob Gibb Memorial Weblog: http://thenewjazzthing.com/categories/theBobGibbMemorialWeblog/index.html Subscribe to the weblog's RSS feed with an enclosure enabled RSS reader, and you get the material I used during my live broadcast last Sunday, November 30, 2003. It's a start in that direction. One thing missing is the scripting, much like an MP3 playlist (or SMIL) to then replay the RSS enclosures as a continuous stream...A SHOW! I've written a couple related pieces to this, including one you had involvement in: http://thenewjazzthing.com/2003/04/16.html#a914
"My goal is to have each and every 'spot' on a TNJT Live show available as an RSS entry on the station's blog. Each tune, each public service announcement (psa), each break where I read from someone's blog, even each seque between tunes as an blog post, accompanied by the audio from the show, as a beginning point for conversation. Tunes are obvious, with communication being a review of the tune and what each listener who wants to blogticipate giving their own review. PSA's are also pretty good starters for discussion, with people who have used these services or participate in them giving everyone the real lowdown on how they serve the public. The point I make as I try to scoot out the door, is that there are lots of individual points of information that come out of a show like mine (and many others) that just scream for feedback of a blog-kind." And something similar actually involving NPR and Audible, where I talk about actually being able to make money for myself AND NPR AND Audible: http://thenewjazzthing.com/2003/08/16.html#a1061
"I write and blog (and even audio blog my writing) about an NPR piece and the NPR piece is included in that blog post as an enclosure. The NPR piece is downloaded via Audible, for which my listeners 'blog subscribers' need to be members. I'm an Audible affliate. Audible delivers more NPR content (and gets into the audio blog business to serve up my audio blog content, maybe even allow me to sell it like they do NPR audio pieces). And NPR sells more of it's content. (And I get to do what I love, listen to NPR and comment / write about it)."
