More thoughts on GoogleCasting

Weblogtools did a poll and a post about the best way to post to wordpress and (very sadly) posting by phone received NO mention :(

So I had to comment in there and mention the GoogleCasting method I have been using recently.

I like the way Ward Mundy over at NerdVittles thinks.
He has some interesting Voip nerd posts recently about Google Voice, Asterisk, and Gizmo hacks
And Google Voice losing SIP

I had read NerdVittles in the past when I was tinkering with Asterisk.
I’ll have to check him out again for more GoogleCasting ideas and tricks.

“GoogleCasting” the ebook – How to use Google Voice for push button podcasting

Today I finished the first edition of an ebook about what I call GoogleCasting.

You can get a free copy of it by signing up for my newsletter. It is a work and progress and I will be releasing future editions of it free to people who subscribe to the newsletter now. Hope you enjoy it.

Here is a [lame] example of a “GoogleCast”

Here is a sneak preview of the ebook:

Why you might want to GoogleCast

What is a GoogleCast?

A GoogleCast is when you call your Google Voice phone number and you record the call using Google Voice’s features. You talk about whatever tickles your fancy and then you can embed the recording of the call into a blog post on wordpress or other blog software. Google also transcribes your voice into text.

The Benefits

  • express your ideas instantly where/whenever you are inspired.
If you wait to post or record later you would have the same energy and enthusiasm.

  • let someone else do the typing
Google Voice converts voice-to-text. (Currently this feature is sub par at best, but when Google gets its act together it will be great.)

  • long (unlimited?) talk time, compared to the 30 seconds you receive with services like Jott.com.
  • Turning phone-interviews into podcasts takes just one click and NO extra software or hardware!!!!
  • Did I mention this is all FREE?

13 Month Calendar System – a monotone GoogleCast

Hi. In this Google Voice recording or “GoogleCast” (hey, I just coined a new term!) I talk about my 13 month calendar system.

This is not a very organised Googlecast and it is also a bit monotonous. But if you can catch my point about the 13 month system I think it will benefit you.
I plan to talk much more about my 13 month system in the future. For now try to enjoy the monotony :)
