signal amplication: Dafcast.net

[cellio]

Dafcast.net is producing a new adaptation of the talmud as a podcast. I just listened to tomorrow's daf, which is all stories (so pretty accessible), and I'm looking forward to more of this. The project is young, so if you're interested in helping, they'll be happy to have you. They're looking for translators, scriptwriters, performers, and probably other folks too. I can't help with translation, but I've signed up to try my hand at adaptation/scriptwriting.

This is even enough to get me to learn about setting up podcasts. :-) (I listened to this one on my computer; I assume I can automate a feed once the production rate picks up.)

Once we launch for real with daily episodes (currently targeting that for the start of Bava Kamnma at the end of December), it will be set up as a regular podcast feed with appropriate RSS magic. For now, the loose episodes must be downloaded as individual MP3s.

I know one of the narrators in the first one, so I'm going to add my reccomendation. :-)
