Lo último que me quedaba por apuntar en la entrada anterior es que en el sitio web mencionado(http://proyectospodcast.googlepages.com) se encuentra la Guía Didáctica que elaboré al principio de todo para tener presente nuestros objetivos en todo momento y los pasos que teníamos que seguir.Las cuestiones técnicas se han ido solucionando conforme iban surgiendo los problemas (sindicación RSS,
