The Sheep Laughs Comedy Show podcast can also be found on and downloaded from the following sites: Myspace.com If you are not familiar with the whole "podcast" concept, here are some F.A.Q.s that may help introduce you to the world of podcasting; Q: What's podcasting? A: According to Wikipedia, "Podcasting is the practice of making audio files available online in a way that allows software to automatically detect new files and download them." Technically, this is accomplished using RSS 2.0 news feeds to provide information about a collection of audio files in MP3 format. In common use, podcasting is often used to refer to independent audio shows that can be downloaded from the Internet. Q: Do I need to have an iPod to listen to podcasts? A: No. The first podcast clients were designed to subscribe to audio shows, automatically download them and sync them to iPods. As podcasting has evolved, podcast clients have become available that work with most portable digital audio players. Many podcast sites support downloading shows directly from the site, and many directories support playing podcasts directly. Q: Do I need special software to listen to podcasts? A: No. Many podcasters and directories let you listen to podcasts as streaming media, directly from the site. Podcasting clients are used to streamline downloading podcasts and copying them to portable media players. (The above information comes from the Podcasting FAQ.) Alright, now that you are "up to speed," we suggest you download JuiceReceiver, a podcast management tool. Once you have successfully downloaded and installed JuiceReceiver, right click on the orange XML button above and select 'copy shortcut' (Internet Explorer) or 'copy link location' (Firefox). Then open JuiceReceiver, and select the Subscriptions tab. Click on the green "plus" icon to add new feed. Right click on the URL field and select paste, then Save. The program is then added to your list of subscriptions. The software will download the program and send it to your iPod the next time you connect. Or you can just listen from your PC.
