JJ, how is my vib phone problem to YOUR dismay? hehe
Yeah, it has a vibe. Keep calling me over and over and then keep hanging up. That would bring much joy to me 4 sure. TMI, huh? hehe
Seriously, I know. I got your
but I've been stuck on the horn for hours w/ my mom and then my sister witch. Had much to discuss. Call me tomorrow or tomorrow night, K? I gotta get this thing working. Or not. I really don't think there's THAT much of a high demand to hear me singing, so whatever!

Spiffy,
I just sent you with some more info. Get back to me on some of that and we can arrange something by phone. (The audio part? Your phone doesn't have a silent vibration setting? Krap! There goes my good time. Pfoof--right out the window. What a kiljoy.)
Back to ya soon. 
jj
Have you tried carrying the phone in your front pocket?
Probably not enough battery life.

Factor, haha! Of course not! Seriously, we don't really even talk when
ghost hunting and recording EVP's. We ask a question and then have to be quiet to allow them time to respond. I have a bunch of them that I'd love to share. Some are kinda scawwy, tho!

Thanks for the info, JJ.
Yeah, we'll have to do it over the phone. (The audio process, I mean!
hehe) I'd really like to get some EVP's up more than my singing. I think it is much more interesting.

When all else fails read the directions, Young Miss.
No, wait. That won't help either, because they were probably written by someone like me, who understands computer programming like a fork understands pecan pie.
You're a bright one, though, so I know you'll figure it out. And when you do, give me an IMMEDIATE heads up; I wanna hear it!

Cool, you hunt ghosts AND you sing? Load them up! Hmmm, you don't do them at the same time do you? Now THAT would be something else.

Spiffy,
The whole thing isn't really hard to do. I don't know if Blogit supports sound or multimedia files, but if you have a website that you can load to that can be read from a browser that is parked at Blogit, there will be no problem. I know I told you before, when you did the dog sounds, that I could help you with it. Then, naturally I forgot all about it. Since you work tomorrow I'll check into it earlier in the day. I'll send you an email when I can give you something more concrete. I probably will need to call you, since it's a little hard to cover what needs to be the equivalent of telephone blab via email.
It's pretty easy, but there are a lot of little tricks that are dependent on your software, file formats, and data transfer techniques, and your file storer's software, file formats, and data transfer techniques. Once the file is where you want it in the format that you want it, it's just a matter of setting up a link in exactly the same way that you link to a picture, but with a different file extension on the name. You may need a click to link setup, but that's just HTML formatting.
The biggest trick is getting the file from you PC hard drive to a server hard drive. That shouldn't be difficult, but there are a number of ways to do it. I'll get to you tomorrow.

Thanks for the tip about the help request. That's a great idea. Oh, and thanks for the link, too! (Sorry, can't remember if I commented on the last one, but I did read it!)

You should write a "Help" post--
We have some computer geeks around here. Didn't know if you were still reading along with the Road Trip but here's a link to Episode 21.

FrankenK, neh, you wouldn't crack when ghost hunting.
Well, maybe ya would. I've really only gotten scared a few times, but with EVP's, you usually don't hear the voices in real time. You hear them when you analyze the recordings. In fact, I'd like to upload some EVP's too! (Hopefully won't scare you, but some actually freaked ME out!)

You can sing? Multi-talented!
I can't carry a tune. I bet an EVP is scary. I always wanted to be a ghosthunter but I think I might crack under the pressure if it was a dangerous spirit. Take care!
