In the podcasting world, these would be the unique url or location of each of your shownotes\/posts on your blog. You can find the permalink for each and every one of your posts by looking up at the browser’s address bar. According to Wikipidia<\/a>:<\/span><\/p>\n

A permalink, or permanent link, is a URL that points to a specific blog or forum entry after it has passed from the front page to the archives. Because a permalink remains unchanged indefinitely, it is less susceptible to link rot. Most modern weblogging and content-syndication software systems support such links. Other types of websites use the term permanent links, but the term permalink is most common within the blogosphere. Permalink is a portmanteau word made from permanent link. Permalinks are often simply stated so as to be human-readable.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
