Lifes like that, you cannot please all the people all the time, any of the time or some of the time........ sometimes by miracle, one person is happy at the given moment in time....... :D

1266152 2012-03-21 18:41:00 Not bad, but it started to 'skip' for me semi frequently after the first 45 seconds, quite a bit, which was a bummer :-/

Still, not bad for a first podcast :)

1266153 2012-03-21 22:53:00 I can play directly from website, didn't want to listen to the whole thing that's all

Same here. No problems playing it, but I do agree - you don't want to listen to all of it. I was bored after two minutes! Perhaps it might work better if the participants worked from a script rather than sounding like an afternoon tea general chat from the PC World lunchroom.

1266154 2012-03-21 23:15:00 Some suggestions:
DISPLAY THE SIZE OF THE DOWNLOAD for that option
make the mp3 smaller
add RSS links if its going to be an ongoing thing.

I had issues downloading it, but gave up after 2 attempts .

1266155 2012-03-21 23:15:00 The podcast played okay but I too became bored very quickly. As Roscoe has said, working from a script would be a big improvement - it sounds like a general natter. If the PC World magazine was done in that style, nobody would buy it!

Write a script, or at least notes to keep you on topic.
