Publishing MP3 Files/Podcasts to Blogger.com

Unfortunately, blogger.com will not allow us to upload MP3 files. However, they will allow us to upload videos. As a result, if we make a movie with our audio files and a picture, we can easily add audio and visual content to our blogs. Click here to see the instructions for posting your podcast to your blogs.

Remember to cite your sources, which includes all pictures from the internet. Click here to see guidelines for citing images using MLA standards.
