Summary

Today's question comes from Patti, who asks about starting a podcast. Does she need the full setup I usually recommend? Can she start by just recording Skype calls? Patti's site is http://pattigood.com/. Check out my podcasting tutorial (http://www.podcastingtutorial.com) for getting started. For recording Skype calls, on Mac use Ecamm Call Recorder (http://www.ecamm.com/mac/callrecorder/), on PC use Pamela for Skype (http://www.pamela.biz/). An excellent inexpensive microphone is the AudioTechnica ATR 2100 (http://askpat.com/atr2100). Do you have a question about podcasting? Record it at http://www.askpat.com/. Today's sponsor is Freshbooks. Go to http://www.GetFreshBooks.com and enter "Ask Pat" for more information.
