This weekend, I spent some time getting the UTOSC 2009 audio content ready to be released and realized that because we are now using wordpress-mu for our blogging structure, it would be a good time to make our new media site.  Our old site, podcast.utos.org while nice, doesn’t provide the flexibility that wordpress can.

I’ve added the new Utah Open Source Media blog at http://media.utos.org and will be slowly porting over the audio and video from our blog and podcast site to this site..

The benefits for doing this are going to be very nice when we get the design for utos.org (work is ongoing) complete.  The main benefit will be that we can directly pull in posts from media.utos.org to utos.org and display the latest audio and video from a UTOS sponsored event. There are other benefits too, like podPress, which makes it easy to publish audio or video from a remote site in one place, has an easy rss feed and provides iTunes support (should we ever decide to use that feature).

I hope you all enjoy it and the developments that will make the UTOS sites a better experience for everyone.

Cheers,

Clint
