PodCasting @ Learning the Lessons of Nixon

Lisa Williams uses the Dewey Decimal System to categorize her site. Brilliant! This link takes you to her PodCasting category (under generalities...interesting). She had a call out for authors to contribute stories for her podcast called "Reading to Rowan" (her son). Here's The Night Before Xmas and The Three Little Bears. Does Audible need an automated work flow and system to bring authors and readers together to create free-flowing down-to-earth "books on tape" without James Earl Jones?

Indie Music Sites

Here are a variety of Indie Music sources. Each of these sites offer songs that are freely available to download and crank up.

Somesongs.com - Original songs from indie songwriters are graded by peers. Check out the "Top Rated" link on the right.

OddioOverplay.com - a huge index of indie net-labels. Intellegently selected and beautifully presented.

Magnatune - A net label who has assembled a fine roster of artists offering sampling of high-res audio (the whole album, no less) and a pricing model that teases the senses (pay what you like starting at $5 an album).

WebJay.org - public playlist manager, representing a huge variety of music and sounds.
