++ Podcast primer This is a quick and dirty guide to Podcasting... in short, how to hear ours and other Podcasts with the minimum of fuss. 1. What is a Podcast? It's basically an MP3 audio file added to an RSS feed that can be easily downloaded and accessed by your computers' media player and/or your portable MP3/audio player. 2. What do I need to download a Podcast? You'll need a Podcast client, or software application. There's a few to choose from, but to make things easy we'll recommend iPodder Lemon. It's available for Windows, Linux and Apple operating systems. Download iPodder: http://ipodder.sourceforge.net 3. Ok, I have iPodder. What's next? Fire up iPodder and go to the "Tools" menu. Select "Add a feed". In the URL field add the Secession Podcast link: http://toysatellite.org/secession/podcast.xml Then press "Save". You might also want to add the KunstRadio Podcast too: http://kunstradio.at/kunstradio.xml Now go to the "Subscriptions" tab. Highlight the feed you want to download. If you're online all Podcasts from that feed will be listed. Tick the one you want, go back to the "Tools" menu and select "Check selected". Your feed will now download and be ready for listening... 4. Er... but where will I find my downloaded Podcasts? Good question! Under the "File" menu select "Preferences". Under the "General" tab you'll see a path to the folder where iPodder has automatically created a download directory. 5. Anything else before I give this a go? Sure! Drop us a line and let us know how you go... leave a message as a comment to this primer. Have fun... live lightly, shine brightly. http://www.toysatellite.org/secession/news/podcast_primer.php +++ SECESSION RECORDS || secession@toysatellite.org +++ new releases: http://www.toysatellite.org/secession/releases/ Alice Wanjira National Coordinator, Catalysing Access to ICTs in Africa (CATIA) Association for Progressive Communications (APC) alice@apc.org http://www.apc.org http://www.catia.ws
Dear Colleagues, is there anyone who has some authoritative information about how Kenyans are to enter Tunisia for WSIS? There being no Tunisia embassy here I have heard that visas can be given at Tunis airport but then there is always the hurdle of getting on the plane in Nairobi. There are high chances that the persons who control entry onto the planes have never heard of WSIS and only care for visa in passport or a letter from Tunisia government saying one wil get it at the Tunis airport. I have e-mailed the address for visa enquiries on the WSIS web site (info.visa@smsitunis2005.tn) without much success as to reply. Please share any available information. Kind Regards Waudo Siganga
RE: VISAS For Tunisia FYI Dear all, Information of which countries need a visa can be found (English) at: http://www.smsitunis2005.org/plateforme/visaen/index.php. Also I am attaching a list of Tunisian missions abroad, taken from this website. Tunis does not have consular services in all countries. Thats why visas will be issued upon arrival at the Tunisian airport. You will need to present your passport, and fill out a form (attached) together with the confirmation of registration letter that the ITU/WSIS has sent after the online registration to the Summit. For those people who could not get their visa before and do not have a visa Schengen and will not have a direct flight to Tunis can use the confirmation of registration letter from the ITU as an official document. This letter has an ID number that will help to identify the individual as a Summit participant within customs authorities. Tunisian authorities have confirmed this and they will inform all authorities from airports (European airports in particular) about this possibility. Regarding the question of obtaining a personal invitation letter from the Host Country, we have raised this question and they have confirmed to us that the confirmation of registration letter will be enough. If you have further questions do not hesitate to contact us. waudo@signet.co.ke wrote: Dear Colleagues, is there anyone who has some authoritative information about how Kenyans are to enter Tunisia for WSIS?
