Audio on a Blog (2)

Further to my problems outlined in a previous post, I've been trying the suggestion from Iain. He suggested using box.net to store the file. Once uploaded, the files can be sent straight to your blog, with a comment, meaning there is no need to add a new post to your blog first.

This worked perfectly for me, and was very quick and easy, but unfortunately it ended up on the wrong blog! If you want to use this method, make sure that the blog you are posting to is at the top of your blogger dashboard before you send the audio file to it. You can do that by making a change on your blog first, and it will then be moved to the top of the list. I decided to write this info first, then go back and send another post.

Of course if you only have one active blog, this won't be an issue.

Once the file has been uploaded to box.net, just click on the wee arrow on the top right corner to see the option to send to your blog. Select your blogger name, add a message (appears as post content), and away you go.
