Gearheads Podcast Dream Finally a Reality???

Fri Mar 21, 2008 at 02:05:44 AM EST

Chello fellow Gearheads. I was just surfin' the webburnet and I've stumbled upon a site called TalkShoe. Now, I don't know much about it now, but it seems to be something similar to Skype. Now, if you don't know what Skype is, it's essentially a Voice Chat messenger-type thing. And whilst lurking this TalkShoe site, I found out that you can make your own 'Conference Call.' And there's the ability to Record you call as well. Again, I don't know much about this site just yet, but it seems that if a group of Gearheads get together in a 'Conference' we could probably Record everyone, even including the person that set up the whole get-together. Now, if you guys would want to test this out so we could finally get this dead Horse to arise, follow the link below, make a Profile, and post your Info below. The only thing I think that is required would be a USB Mic, and possibly Skype, which can be found below as well. And you can actually choose to do a "Live Call" which is like a Live Stream-sorta thing, so if we actually DO this then we could probably do a Live Podcast.

Requirements:
-USB Mic (easiest/least hassle)
-An Account to be able to Voice Chat (text works with or without an account)
-TalkShoe PRO Software (free download at site) or TalkShoe Internet Browser Chat open.
-Find the Podcast
And that's it!

|UPDATE| I got it to work, and it DOES record my voice as well as everyone else when I host, so ladies and gentlemen - we have a Podcast on our hands. Now we need to schedule a first episode, I was thinking maybe a FFF Commentary??? Hell, I don't care, I just want to test drive this with some other people, so post below and hopefully we can start this very soon. And if anyone needs help on what to do, let me know.
