How to use Podbean

Here are some instructions on using Podbean to publish podcasts.
  1. Record your audio file using Audacity. Export as MP3. It’ll be saved on your computer.
  2. Go to www.podbean.com. Log in with the username/password given to you by Ms. Vojnov.
  3. It’s easiest to upload the file first, and then write the post. Click Upload up on the menu bar in the dashboard.
  4. Browse to locate your recorded audio file, and upload it. Depending on available bandwidth, this may take about a minute or so.
  5. Next, it’s time to write the post. Click Publish up on the menu bar in the dashboard. This opens a new post for editing.
  6. Enter one or more tags, separated by commas, e.g. “Modern revolutions”, “Cuba”. This allows podbean users looking for audio content related to those topics to locate your files.
  7. Enter the title. This should probably include the name of the group members, to make it easier to identify each episode. This will be the title that appears if you subscribe to the feed using an RSS reader (e.g. iGoogle, Netvibes, etc.).
  8. Enter the text for the post. This will probably be discussed in class, but I expect it may include short reflections on/rationale your podcast episode.
  9. Next, it’s time to choose the audio file. Click on the button that says Add your audio/video. From the list of available files, select the file you uploaded before.
  10. At the bottom, click the button that says Publish.
