You might have noticed that we have a "Listen"-button for each blog entry. It is located below all the text to the left and looks like this:

If you click on it it will expand and look like this:

and all the text in your blog entry will automatically be read up by some kind of speech synthesis, a pretty good one - either with a man's voice or a woman's.
Click on the button again and the expanded section will collapse again.

As you register you will also gain access to a personal podcast that is hosted by Odiogo. This podcast is an rss-feed of your blog entries as speech that is not more than 30 days old. We have a link to our podcast in the left sidebar. The feed-images here will be re-designed by Randolph soon, but for now it looks like this:

Clicking on it will take you to our page at Odiogo's. Here you can either get instructions on how to subscribe to the feed using some common feed readers or to just listen to our entries one by one or stream them all.

Great service! Go there and register now if you're interested!

If you are using Firefox, IE7 or any other modern browser you can make it possible for visitors to easily spot if you provide any rss-feeds.

If you see this image in the address bar - - it means that the site/blog has rss-feeds. It is not something that happens by default though, you have to add a tag for each rss-feed to make it visible on your site.

For wohill this tag is added in the head-section of the page and looks like this:

<link rel='alternate' type='application/rss+xml' href='http://www.wohill.com/rss.php' title='Wohill' />

When surfing in to Wohill it looks like this in the address bar. Click on the icon:


If you click on the first it says "Add Wohill as an active bookmark". If you do that the feed will open in the browser:


and you have the possibility to subscribe to it via bloglines, Yahoo and Google reader or just read it on the page as it is. As you might notice there is also an audio feed. This is declared in the same way:

<link rel='alternate' type='application/rss+xml' href='http://podcasts.odiogo.com/wohill-creative-design-by-randolph-guy/podcasts-html.php' title='Audio Feed' />

and is hosted by another site, odiogo.com, a really great service. I will blog about it later on.
