Week 9 Thing 21 Podcasts via google

Okay, I finally added a podcast, using the Google link (on Library2.0 Week 9 Thing 21) to link to my Google reader account. And it worked the first time. (I'd forgotten how to post a feed to the blog but Google's "help" got me back on track. Another plus for Google.) You can find the link widget to the "spanish lesson" I added to my blog on the right side with the list of other RSS feeds - underneath the loooong list of postings.
I am soooo glad to move on, to ebooks and audio books.

Week 9 Thing 21 Podcast

Frustrations. First time I've had so much trouble. I can find and hear podcasts just fine, but trying to save them or add to my blog has been impossible so far.
Actually, I have successfully bookmarked some good booktalks and Yahoo does have many podcasts to choose from. Found a few on podcast.net too (good one on bookbanning week about experiences with censorship).
I installed yahoo to get podcasts. I was unhappy that unsolicited yahoo email and yahoo toolbar and yahoo default browser and very intrusive ad pop ups appeared. Yahoo's program was VERY slow and frequently seemed to freeze, even on our fiberoptic service. So I uninstalled everything yahoo.
I just tried again with custom install and was able to keep out the default browser, toolbar and email. I'll see if I have any success in saving anything this time in "my subscriptions". Before I was unable to subscribe or download an episode.
Wish me luck. I've already spent so much time here I'm about ready to give up.
