OCN Matching Grant Extended
Posted on Friday, May 02, 2008 at 9:45 AM by Jason Barker
Fr. Christopher Metropulos has announced that the Orthodox Christian Network's Pascha Appeal has been extended:
I hope you'll be as excited as I am to learn that the Orthodox Christian Network has received more than $35,000 in donations from supporters like you during this Paschal season, all of which will go directly to EXPANDING Orthodox Christian programming on the radio, the Internet and television!
That's truly amazing, especially when you consider that the vast majority of those donations came from individuals who gave $25 or $50. I believe this demonstrates the power of what we can do when we join together, and it proves that YOUR GIFT – no matter how large or small – REALLY DOES make a difference!
But the good news doesn't end there: I've just confirmed that we are able to EXTEND our Matching Campaign, so your Paschal donation can still be MATCHED dollar for dollar. With your support, we can continue to SHARE CHRIST'S JOYFUL RESURRECTION with thousands all around the world. Please join us. Every single gift makes a difference. Thank you so much!

More Info on Creating a Podcast
Posted on Tuesday, April 15, 2008 at 9:27 AM by Jason Barker
A few months ago I created a short series of posts about how I create GET WISDOM; the point of the series was to give a few pointers about the ways I've gone about selecting and using hardware and software for podcast creation for people who might be considering creating an Orthodox podcast.
In his Podquod podcast, Mark Jensen recently devoted an extended episode to selecting gear for creating a podcast. Readers who want more information - and another perspective - about podcast creation might benefit from this episode of Podquod.
