I’m not sure if and how plug ins can be installed on Wordpress.com sites. It will look like pictures f.e. in this gallery: http://www.studioseven.nu/gallery/gallery.htm

Elsie,

I love your podcasts and do them (as well as Hillary’s) often–esp. when I am on the road. It’s as close to a class as I can get.

A couple of your recent podcasts have been in an MP4 format. I can’t open them (my business’ IT dept. doesnt’ support the format), which is very sad. Is your intention to stick with MP4?
