Light Blogging

In Ottawa right now doing the Canada Day things with friends. There aren’t any wireless hotspots to which I care to lug my laptop on a hot day, so I’m at Chapters in the Byward market with, oh, about 4 minutes left on my Internet Café gift card. This is all very interesting I’m sure…

Nothing much to report except that the fireworks at the Hill were great and that Sam Roberts is a twit.

Happy Belated Canada Day!

BT ANNOUNCE: The Podcasting Tories

In the spirit of my interviews with MPs Monte Solberg (1, 2, 3, 4) and Andrew Scheer (1, 2), I created the Blogging Tories Podcasting page because I wanted to get the whole Blogging Tories community in on the action.

If you’ve been thinking of getting into podcasting, here’s your chance. The Blogging Tories today has officially launched its Postcasting Tories site.

I’ve purchased branding on the iPodder software for ease of use for our audience (the Blogging Tories feed is already integrated) so go there now and download it from our servers (PC and Mac available).

The idea is to integrate podcasts from members of the Blogging Tories community into one Podcasting feed that is downloaded regularly by the Podcast Aggregating software run by our global audience. Whenever a new podcast becomes availiable, the software downloads it automatically for the user.

I’m currently trying to round up some conservative radio pundits and personalities to include in the podcast XML feed as well. If you’re such a radio personality, let me know and I’ll put you in the feed! Of course, if you’re not a Canadian radio celebrity — here’s your chance to tryout!

Conservative talk radio has hit Canada… in podcast form.

UPDATE: You DON’T need an iPod!
