PODcasting  -  The Continuing Story.

Last month we investigated the why's & wherefore's of PODcasting and found that it requires an MP3 player to play the show (spoken word and/or music) at a later time and away from your PC. This month we'll look at buying an MP3 player if you don't already have one and next month we'll look at how to download from the internet to your player.

MP3 players are everywhere! It seems that the number of makes and models in this market is growing daily, with features and capabilities intended to appeal to just about anyone shopping for one of these devices.

MP3 players have been around much longer than the ubiquitous Apple iPod, but there is no arguing that this one device opened the market to a much larger customer base. In addition to Apple's own success, the iPod paved the way for dozens of other manufacturers to offer their own twist on this technology.

This series of Techo's Tips will attempt to simplify things by taking a look at four basic features of a typical MP3 player that may be important to a potential buyer, including: storage technologies, capacities, file formats, and displays.

Jae's Soapbox
Mistake

I must admit that I have often thought
Of leaving it all behind and letting everything go.

I was lost and alone, as I always am
So many people around me
Yet no one seems to care.

They say they understand and love me very much
But just when I trust to love, they forget and move on.
I held the knife so close
As the tears mixed with blood
Began to slowly fall
Like a foolish child, I cried.

Knowing that I could end it all now
Made my mind draw a blank
I put the knife away and tried to wipe the blood
That ran faster than I can describe.
I knew suicide wasn't the answer I was looking for
I knew there was a reason for me being alone.

So many bad things happen at once-
They can make you forget
About the good qualities in life
Even though life is hard
And trouble is an inevitable part of it.
If you decide to leave it all behind
Maybe you will
But I can guarentee that others
......Your mistake will haunt.
