Podcast history in the making

Okay, I went and did it... Episode 0 of "The Art of Roleplaying" 
Podcast.

http://raven.phoenyx.net/mutterings/20061005.html

It's not set up properly as a real podcast yet.  If I get positive 
feedback (I mean, _any_ positive feedback, 'cause I'm easy), I'll give 
it a permanent home and a proper feed with enclosures.

(That "phoenyx" doesn't lend itself to spoken word... I don't like to 
have to spell it out.  "taorp.com" is short, but would have to be 
spelled as well.  theartofroleplaying.com is easy to say out-loud, but 
a pain to type.)

You _do_ realize it's a short leap from "taorp.com" to "TaoRP dot com"?

Never be afraid to be lazy...

Yes... and it's intentional.  The podcast is a journey... the path 
to roleplaying enlightenment. :)  But I think I'd still have to spell 
it out, and it's a clumsy sequence of letters to recite.

So I've got theartofroleplaying.com.  It'll do.  It's only one letter 
longer than gamerthepodcasting.com.

(I'll say that after configuring all the blogging software for it, I 
_did_ get tired of typing it. :)

"dow-arr-pee-dot-comm" is difficult to recite?

As I said, I'd have to spell it out.  Especially, if you pronounce it 
"dao" and not "tao" (legitimate as the pronunciation may be), it 
doesn't naturally lead to the right spelling.

Much easier to say "the art of roleplaying dot com", and it's more 
obvious in print.  Even TaoRP.com isn't exactly clear advertising.

TheArtOfRoleplaying.com is obvious in print and speech.

Load o' crap. :)

Excuse me while I go work on my next podcast.

I'm not lost, I'm "locationally challenged".

The Marillion mailing list seems to be in agreement with you on that one :)

Not sure about that; Marillion did tour America last year, and some 
shows sold out.

To stay vaguely on-topic, I'm sure I've worn a Marillion T shirt to a 
games convention at least once.

I'm still going to make good on my threat to record a "Hello, this is

(Right after I go and actually listen to the podcast, which I haven't 
heard.  And didn't, in fact, get offered a chance to hear before it was 
unleashed on the world.)

We could make it a bumper.  The wider audience wouldn't get it, 
though.

Um... you never got to hear it?  Hrm.  You're probably right... it 
didn't occur to me that all the time it's been sitting on my harddrive 
I never let you listen to the final edit.  It's only been sitting 
there since 10/29/2005.  (Really... we recorded a podcast session a 
_year_ ago and finally decided I had enough to say that was worth 
listening to to commit to it.)

Don't worry... you sound fine.  I'm the one that keeps going 
"Yeeaahhhh...?" in response to your statements.  ("Real soon now, I'm 
going to find a place to connect to this conversation.")
