Let’s start talking
Welcome to Scraps of Mind. I'm delighted to see you. Why not check out the site, you'll find a bunch of great scrapbooking and blogging articles, tips and tutorials on the Articles Page. And if you enjoy this or any other articles on Scraps of Mind, I'd really appreciate you giving them a thumbs up on StumbleUpon to share them with other Scrapbookers. Thanks for visiting and I look forward to seeing more of you.
I thought we’d try something a little bit different today.
I’ve made a short podcast so you you can get to hear me rather than just read me. It’s just a short 5 minute talk but I’m pretty excited to have created it by myself.
Take a listen and let me know what you think. If this works out well then I might do a few more down the track.
I’m sure you know what to do:
- Turn your speakers on
- Click on the little Speaker graphic below
- Sit back and let me talk at you


Stumble it!

Very good job, Karen! Nice to hear your voice, I feel like I know you a lot better now! Great podcast, very interesting and informative.
I look forward to seeing your new-look template when you get it up and running!
Sorry I never got back to you with feedback on that other post, I guess I’ve just been really busy. But I do like your blog and aside from my issues with viewing it (which will not be issues anymore since you are changing the template) I can’t really think of anything you should change.

This was so wonderful! I love your accent and it is really nice to put a voice to a blog. I’ve never done a podcast before but this was wonderful and I look for many more!

Very cool Karen. Look forward to hearing you again soon.

Great job, Karen. I’m experimenting with this too… just learning so far. Did you use Audacity software for this podcast?
By Yvonne Russell on Sep 6, 2007
Awesome, so great listening to you ! Somehow it makes it a bit more personal, isn’t that weird ? LOL And no, had no problems with your accent
It will be fun to really hear you every now and than !

Great podcast, I hope you’ll make some more!

Amazed with how I feel like I really know you now that I have heard your voice - this was great! I am checking out the blog guy and also I love your accent!

Thanks everyone. I’m so glad it went over so well. I’ll definitely do some more in the future.
Yes I used Audacity software Yvonne. It was quite easy to learn but getting it onto my blog was a bit of a nightmare. Still it’s all part of the learning experience.
And by the way, Those Gods of Technology did send a thunderbolt my way so the template upgrade will be soon but not very very soon I’m afraid.

Oh this is wonderful Karen! And I could understand every single word - yay! (for me, as a Dutchie, that’s quite something!) I love the personal touch the podcast offers - haven’t had the nerve to do something like this myself (talk about accent!! LOL)
can’t wait to see the new layout!
Somehow your voice reminded me of J.K. Rowling
My compliments to the management

Well Antoinette, I didn’t realise I had an accent until I heard this podcast!!!
By karooch on Sep 7, 2007
Awesome! Keep em coming!
By Rachel on Sep 7, 2007
My sister has an accent?!?!
By martin on Sep 7, 2007
Thanks for the info Karen. I look forward to future podcasts.
By Yvonne Russell on Sep 7, 2007
I wanted to do something like some time ago, but I was not sure my english is good enough! This is great! Congratulations for all the members of your team:)
