I did record the pod cast


Yes I recorded the pod cast as I promised in my last post, but unable to deliver here due to various reasons. It was not easy to get started and not tough after I started recording. First of all during the Friday night when I went back to home, I relaxed and finished my dinner and thought to start record the pod cast, but it was tough….not recording, but to find the mp3 player. I kept it outside my bag and forgot where exactly I left it. It took 2hrs of my time to re collect and then finally at one go I finished recording.
When I started recording it was 2 AM in the morning and I thought to put it on podbean.com, then later found that they have limited space of 100 MB for free users which doesn’t serve my purpose. I decided to upload it on my own server and found couple of plug INS which can host my pod cast and yaa they are accessible for my mates who use a screen reader. Then finally I thought to upload, but there is one more problem my mp3 player recorded the pod cast in WMA format and to convert I need a converter. The laptop which I use now is too old to handle any more extra software’s and I have to get my desktop repaired to get it uploaded. No luck inspire of trying to repair my desktop computer there are couple of problems which is not helping my computer to run as I wanted and I need more time to host it directly on to my blog.

For those who would like to download and listen to this pod cast please download from rapid share for time being and yes don’t forget to give your suggestions, tips and leave your comments in the comments section.

Screen Reader can also Sing


Hi folks I thought to share a cool video which drew my attention while I am searching for jaws scripts for audacity. This video is super cool and have you ever thought to use a screen reader for fun and music. I bet none of them would think that, but this guy here has composed a RAP song using the screen reader and totally blown up the way I think JAWS screen reader can be used.

hope you enjoyed this video and please share your views in the comments section.

My first podcast will be up


Hi folks after a great week end I am back here to share my insides of what happened during the week end and what is going happen…….As I told in my earlier posts that I am going to start off with podcasting and video casting, I think the time has come that I must kick off and start some where. So I am starting my podcasting and I would like all of my readers to be a part of this.

There are couple of changes going on the blog design too. One of my friend from tqphosting is working on the blog theme and design. I replaced my earlier theme with cool looking light weight theme for now , which helps my readers to read the posts more conveniently than before. I am working towards my logo and integration of social platforms too.

The first podcast is going to be all about me, what I do and how you all can be part of my future podcasting shows. there is a lot of activity which I would like to share……….but in my nexts posts.

How my blog is testing my patience


After lot of effort and help from friends and family I got my blog up and running it for a while. Last week some thing happened which screwed my blog totally. I was trying to put one of my pod cast and updated the post. Some thing happened which shocked me, all my posts, comments are not visible. I thought for a minute that my blog was hacked and the hacker deleted the content. I got some help from Mohan and he suggested talking to my hosting provider. As he suggested I had a live chat with them, they asked to repair the database and if the problem still persists they asked to get in touch with security team.

Magically the repair option got back all my content, but even before I enquired the technical team for solution I tried my own methods like deleting plug-in, deactivating and reinstalling word press. During this move some errors took place which might be or might not be rectified. Now I found that my threaded comment plug-in is giving trouble by showing some error and stopped functioning. I am not able to reply to comments and interact with my users. I cannot effort to change the theme. I am trying to test all possibilities and looking at all options.

One thing I learned from this is I must have lots of patience and energy to deal with these kinds of small problems. Ok now I am off to rectify my comments system plug-in.

It is Not Difficult To Be A Vegetarian


We all know the arguments that being vegetarian is better for the environment and for the animals — but in a carnivorous culture, it can be hard to make
The change. Graham Hill has a powerful, pragmatic suggestion: Be a weekday veg.

Graham gave a powerful message to all those who would like to cut down eating non vegetarian food and make their life more healthy .it is not at all tough to stop eating meat if you follow the rule of weekday veg and in return you can save the lives of animals and nature.
