Second Mention of Classcaster on corante.com
I added a comment to the page reminding the author that Classcaster is actually the system that CALI Radio runs on. It is important for people to know that this is not a one blog pony:)
The terrific Center for Computer-Assisted Legal Education has been featuring lectures and other educational materials at CALI Radio, otherwise known as the ClassCaster, for several months now.
A natural extension for podcasting. Between Lawyers: technology + culture + law
Plog Is Now Lifetype
pLog, which provides the blogging power for Classcaster, has changed its name to LifeType.
LifeType Development Journal
The formerly known as pLog project has decided to get a facelift including a new name, new image and new logo. This facelift is related to the project’s cooperation with Amazon, current owners of the “plog” trademark in the United States. On behalf of the project, we would like to thank Amazon for their collaboration and help. Other companies would have chosen to sue but instead Amazon decided to cooperate and had a lot of patience with us.

BBC Works on Annotatable Audio
This post concerns an experimental internal-BBC-only project designed to allow users to collectively describe, segment and annotate audio in a Wikipedia-style fashion. It was developed by the BBC Radio & Music Interactive R&D team – for this project consisting of myself, Tristan Ferne, Chris Bowley, Helen Crowe, Paul Clifford and Bronwyn Van Der Merwe. Although the project is a BBC project, all the speculation and theorising around the edges is my own and does not necessarily represent the opinion of my department or the BBC in general.
More Classcaster Sitings
By way of correction, we are not using Shockwave to record podcasts. We are embedding a Flash MP3 player object in the post to play the audio, but the recording is done using a telephone connection or by uploading locally recorded MP3s. We are using the open source Musicplayer at the moment, but are developing our own player that is more tuned to playing single MP3s from a blog post.
RSS4Lib:: Shockwave Audio and Weblogs
The Neef Law Library blog at Wayne State University is using Shockwave audio files to record blog content.
Classcaster features an Asterisk PBX on the backend that allows us to record phone calls and then generate a blog post containing the MP3 recording of the call. Blogging services are provided through a modified version of pLog. Taken together these tools allow Classcaster to be a full featured blogging and podcasting platform.
