You should give it a whirl, it works pretty well. I don't think it can handle an MP3, so export a WAV from audacity. I also helped someone encode an OGG podcast before using oggenc.

I usually create a wav file in audacity and then use lame and oggenc to optimize the encoding. Audacity might also give you some options on the configuration files vi ~.audacity I am not sure which can be the settings for OGG thought.

All I appear to have is a slider. I'll drop it right down though now that I know I can do so. Thanks for the info! Audacity doesn’t have a Kbps setting for OGGs that I can find.

But the new forums are up and running on my domain now. They're alongside my personal site forums here: http://www.jonwatson.ca/blog/modules/newbb/ Mail-merge, eh? I like that idea...I can use Roblimo's Point &#38; Click OOo to learn how to do it and then teach Kelly on the air. Sounds like fun! Heya Jza,

Wow…I’m glad there was something to learn in there :)

Since the forum is now as read only I want to give a suggestion for future podcast. What about doing stuff with programs, one thing we get usually in the OOo community is doing mail merge in Writer. Another thing that might be nice is doing nice document design on Scribus which is a nice Quark-like software.
