the necessary XML-file, which you (now) can use for your totally-cool podcast!
YAY!
But the feed-title: "Delicious/(your user-name)" and the sub-title:
"bookmarks posted by (your user-name)" might NOT be the coolest thing to
have showing on your (current) feed - let alone having y-o-u-r podcast known
out there as: "Delicious/(your user-name)"
So why not make it a bit more "personal" with Google's Feedburner?
If you've already got an account with Google, then you can use this
account to log in; if not then (just) create your Feedburner-account
and get it over with!
When you're all logged in at Feedburner then look for the following:
"Burn a feed right this instant. Type your blog or feed address here",
and then tap in (or copy-and-paste) the address from the RSS-page
you've just made at delicious, remember to check the box "I am a podcaster!"
and now click on the "Next"-button!
You are now going to give your feed it's (proper) name AND the URL-address,
which from now on will be the URLaddresss, you'll be using for your RSS and/or
podcast-feed!
Now, as Feedburner says on the following page, it's time to dress up your feed
a little bit, and make more personal, by clicking on the next "Next"-button!
On the next page, you'll now be configuring your podcast and telling iTunes how
to show things regarding your feed.
- Set the "Create podcast enclosures from links to"-option to "any rich media file"
- Check the box next to "Include iTunes podcasting elements"
- Choose "Music" under the "Category:"-option
- Fill out the the form-fields the best you can
- Check the box next to "Include "Media RSS" information and add podcast to Yahoo! Search"
the following page check all three check-boxes on this page, and click again on
this page's "Next"-button.
On the following page, click on the "Optimize"-tab and then find and click on
the: "Title/Description Burner"-link; on this page, type in the "New Title:"-field
the desired name for your podcast followed by clicking on "Activate"-button -
and you should now be all set with y-o-u-r new podcast...!
Finally, just to illustrate things - here's a final working example made from the
feed-example shown in the previous posting, and after I've used Feedburner's
"Title/Description Burner"-option: http://feeds.feedburner.com/dee3-exp
After following the instructions in both the previous and this posting, you should
now have a more personalized podcast-feed ready to unleash on the unsuspecting
masses out there!
Thanks for reading this...
