New: Flash video link

September 27, 2007

I have added a Flash video link at the bottom of the posts for listeners who have trouble watching the Quicktime files. Flash video is an alternate video format that uses Adobe’s Flash Player to play the files. This is what Google Video and YouTube use.

So now there are three ways to watch the podcast.
1: You can subscribe via the feed and have new episodes come to you automatically.
2: You can check the website and see either the mp4 or flv files.
3: You can download the episodes and save them to your computer.
I hope this will provide more accessibility.

I want to give a great big THANK YOU to all who have written me email and have left comments on this blog! Your suggestions are helping me improve my podcast!

Welcome to the ‘07-’08 School Year

September 9, 2007

Welcome to the new school year and another year of Podcuentos. This podcast has evolved since last year. Not only will you be just listening to Spanish with audio-only episodes; I’ve incorporated scripts, images and videos to help you make sense of the Spanish you hear. Enjoy the episodes, leave feedback, and listen often.
