New Logo

OK, So the latest revision to the SLPN website is that there is a new logo. Why?

Well I felt that the old logo was getting a bit old and to be honest I never really liked it. So I had a creative impulse and went with it and here is the new logo. I prefer this one. But again its my opinion, What do you think?

New Sidebar + The Beat Chicks Podcast!

I have just redesigned the Sidebar layout for a cleaner look to the site.

Also, I’d like to welcome The Beat Chicks to the SLPN network. The Beat Chicks is a SL music scene podcast where Hope Clary and TheDiva Rockin interview your favourite SL Musicians and get some Live performances too. So, if you love Live Music, be sure to grab this into your MP3 player!

SLPN on the iPhone / iPod

Today I have put in a new plugin on the SLPN website which allows iPhone and iPod users to browse through the content of SLPN as well as search through it as well. If you are a wordpress user you may want to give the plugin a try, its called WPtouch.

It also plays well with the podPress plugin that we use to have the flash player and download the content. I think its a pretty cool plugin with some nice AJAX features. So if you have an iPhone or iPod visit http://slpodcast.net/ and add us to your home screen .

One More Thing…

We have now switched our SLPN videos from the place we were once hosting it to another service called Blip.TV . The reason we chose to move our video content from Libsyn to Blip is cost and also the service. Blip is dedicated to video and has a nice interface for people who just want to watch videos on the fly. It also allows our video to be automatically converted to an iPod format for those who want to watch the videos on their iPods or any MP4 player.

With the move and the restrictions of file size per month lifted we can now offer you more video content and so I am currently talking to machima people who might be intrested in showcasing their work on SLPN.

Lack of Live

About two months ago we announced that we was going to be doing live episodes of podcasts such as MetaNews Weekly and The Podmafia Podcast. However this has been halted and I would like to explain why.

The main reason for this is because my main machine’s motherboard bricked (that means totally died) a month ago. So this means that any live events that I need to be at will be on hold. However once my motherboard gets returned I shall be back online and ready to get live shows rolling once more.
