1/24/07- We would like to thank all those who tuned in to our beta podcast project in the fall of 2006. We had an exciting time doing the broadcasts and enjoyed the interaction with listeners. We received some great feedback and had a fun time doing the various product tests and comparisons. For the time being, we have put the project on hold. While it does not take much to make a podcast (a PC and a microphone are the essentials), the time and resources required to do the various tasks we discussed during each broadcast were more than we could handle on a weekly basis. We are reviewing some options to be able to continue broadcasting and will make a decision in February. Because our past broadcasts are not really time sensitive (such as a news broadcast might be), we are going to keep our broadcast archive open. The following is a listing of past broadcasts in MP3 format if you would like to listen to them on a computer using a media player such as Windows Media Player or Real Player. The XML feed for them is http://www.rokland.com/podcasts/rokland.xml
