Sounds Good episode 28 - A re-purposed old episode I did for FeedBurner by Hens Zimmerman January 17, 2011 http://bit.ly/soundsgoodpodcast The rss feed of Sounds Good is: http://feeds.feedburner.com/soundsgood SAE Institute: http://sae.edu/ FeedBurner: http://feedburner.google.com/ Inside Home Recording: http://www.insidehomerecording.com/ Because more than a year has gone by without any new episodes, here now is just a rehashed old thing that you might still find interesting. This is especially the case if you are a podcaster yourself, or pondering about becoming one. I hope to create a truly new episode some day soon, so please stay subscribed. I do create the occasional guest segment for the Inside Home Recording podcast, so be sure to check that one out too! Hens Zimmerman Yes!
