Gcast

A few tips and reminders about how to access, record and embed your Gcast daily reflection:

[|Gcast] is your first stop to create your account. Go ahead and use your gmail account that's been created for you for the conference (i.e. mdmc0813@gmail.com).

Suggestion: Although you'll be entering a primary phone number- IF someone else will be calling from a different phone- they will need to enter the original phone number the account was set-up with along with the PIN code.

Once your account has been created, you now have the access to record your podcast by calling 1-888-65-GCAST (888-654-2278). //*****From the Gcast registration site:** If you call from another number, we'll ask you to type in your primary phone number for identification.// BEFORE you call- have a few bullet points at the ready to record. BREATHE and SMILE :-)

Follow the prompts to record your reflection. Record as many times you need to. Reviewing your recording is optional- otherwise press the "#" key to save and publish to your Gcast account.

Give it a few minutes for your audio file to show up in your account. Once the file shows up- follow the link on the right below "Listen to your Podcast" with your account name + podcast.

Click on the link below the icon with your podcast player: Love this podcast? Add it to your blog or MySpace!

Here you'll have style options- but the most important one to note is: Step 3: Choose playback options  BE SURE TO SELECT "NO" for Auto-play and Repeat

Last step here is Step 4: Add the player to your page Copy the html code which will be what you'll need to embed in to your wiki.
