I decided to put this little post together not entirely from a selfless point of view. Full disclosure: I am a podcaster and I would LOVE to get any of these for Christmas 🙂 Which is why I’m sharing them with you, not only for my own selfish little reasons

This is a 3-step tutorial on how to quickly post a file to libsyn3. This is only really appropriate for those times when you just need to get a file up and able to be downloaded- but not published to any destination (rss feed, webpage, app, player, etc). Step 1.
