I have been experimenting with an extension to WordPress (the software that runs this blog) that allows you to podcast, because we have a customer who is interested in doing just that. The remainder of this post describes my first podcast. If you’re interested in adding this to your site, just get in touch. This blog and the podcast both have RSS feeds, see the right-hand sidebar.

Here is a traditional French tune from the Aveyron region in the Massif Central, played by Spootiskerry (Neil Rogers, Jan Lawrence and Richard Cryan):

Update 26 February 2011: WordPress has been updated to release 3.1 and the podcasting extension (plugin) does not yet work with it. Existing content still works but adding new podcasts probably won’t yet. If you want to add this feature to your blog, still get in touch and we will check the current position, as I expect the software to be adapted for this latest release soon.
