Royalty-free sound effects are typically non-exclusive and can be used by anyone who purchases them. Professional sound effects can give a podcast or production a more professional sound.&lt;br /&gt;

  64.            <title>The Making of a Good Podcast</title>
  65.            <description>
  66.                <![CDATA[There are many, many things that separate a <b><i>good</i></b><i> </i>podcast from all the rest. Here are a few to consider...<br />
  67. <br />
  68. <b><i>Recording Quality</i></b><br />
  69. The quality of the recording is probably the most critical component of a podcast. A good podcast is easy to understand, and should be recorded at a volume level that makes it easy for listeners to hear all that is said.<br />

  78.            <title>Repackaging and Re-Using Content</title>
  79.            <description>Repurposing content is not a terribly new concept. Webmasters that picked up on the trend have benefited from traffic surges for a while now. Repurposing content is all about presenting the same content in a variety of different ways, or using different mediums to present the same content. Webmasters can manipulate content in order to provide the same content in any number of different formats.&lt;br /&gt;
  80. &lt;br /&gt;
  81. Why would publishers want to do this? There are a number of benefits to repurposing content, not the least of which is that it allows customers to select the format they wish to access your information. Additionally, repurposing content often does not require a lot of extra time, expense, or additional effort. The content itself already exists -- the format is just different. Additionally, there are a number of software tools available that can assist users in easily repurposing the content.&lt;br /&gt;

  97.            <title>Where to Find Sound Effects?</title>
  98.            <description>Royalty-free sound effect libraries contain thousands of sound effects that can be licensed for specific uses. A customer who uses royalty-free sound effects, as opposed to hiring a sound engineer to create them from scratch, can save considerable time, effort, and money. Typically, podcasters and other content producers can obtain non-exclusive rights to a single effect, or they can purchase a subscription of sorts. The subscriptions allow publishers to download a limited number of sound effects during a specified period of time.&lt;br /&gt;

Will the new communication mediums have the power to influence public opinion? Will politicians be the victims of technology, or will they use it to their benefit?

  257.            <title>Where to Locate Podsafe Music</title>
  258.            <description>Adding music and sound effects to a podcast does not need to be difficult. There are a number of podsafe music directories that allow for podcasters to locate theme music or sound effects to enhance their podcast. This new industry understands the complexity of licensing professional music and the majority of these repositiories provide royalty free music clips for podcasters to use in their shows. Music and show sound effects give show a professional edge and really make it difficult for listeners to discern the difference between a hobby and a studio broadcast. &lt;br /&gt;

  270. <i>After all it is the content that matters right? Well no, not exactly remember when black and white televisions could "kind of" tune into stations it was just a hazy effect. How many continued to watch the grainy or flipping screen. Rarely was the show so riveting did it hold the interest of the viewer. Unless of course the content was forbidden to young eyes (as in the playboy channel). </i><br />

  307.            <description>Before you begin podcasting develop a plan and a format for your show. Determine the focus of your podcast and what types of guests you would like to interview. Time spent planning your show will contribute to it&apos;s success. &lt;br /&gt;
  308. &lt;br /&gt;
  309. &lt;b&gt;Location, Location, Location &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  310. When you are producing a podcast on a regular basis it is important that you select an appropriate location for the recording to take place. The location should be free of external distractions and relatively quiet. It is easiest if you use the same location each time, that way the equipment can remain in place and will not require moving or setup each time you produce a show. &lt;br /&gt;

A Podcast is just an audio file that is syndicated via an RSS feed, that you download and listen to with your computer or a portable device such as an iPod. &lt;br&gt;
  385. &lt;br&gt;

  394.            <description>Apple ipod is a great mp3 player, but it&apos;s the battery that leaves the consumers a little concerned. The battery is in a closed compartment and not end-user serviceable. Other mp3 devices in the market have a more accessible battery compartment, so if the battery runs out during a long trip, it can be replaced easily. You can open the ipod battery compartment by using a screwdriver but that will render your warranty null and void. But this method doesn&apos;t allow you to replace the battery during long trips. You can adopt this method to change the battery of an aging iPod. For those who want an extended life for their player, they can shell out $100 to get the battery replaced from the Apple factory, which may take a considerable time. &lt;br&gt;
