Another way to spend a weekend!

Was wondering if it might be possible to pull in a sound file, as I believe it works like that on some systems.....It couldn't be that easy could it?

No I didn't really think so. Now if Andrew reads this he may remember giving some advice about hosting.....trouble was I couldn't remember where that was....mail... blog ..somewhere.

A good free place to host audio is the internet archive:
http://www.archive.org
It is a good place to find background podsafe music too.

Am signed up...but it would not recognise my file name...copied the style most carefully, I thought.Checked again for typos.Tried various options. Are the grey underscores relevant?

Hi Marlyn,
Once you've joined the archive you need to up load your MP3.
Log in and click the link to upload your own recordingon the front page. The next steps are a wee bit of a footer, but they do work. The identifier for your file must only have alphanumeric (A-Z, a-z, 0-9), period (.), or underscore (_) characters.
The identifier's first character must be alphanumeric., could that be the problem?
