We're excited about the video-capable iPods. As a training company we're always looking for unique ways to engage our audience. To that end, the iPod is a dream come true. Quicktime content can now be emancipated from the computer and placed in the palm of your hands - literally.
If you're part of the ear-budded masses that prefer your content "on-the-go", we now offer you iPod-friendly podcasts we've dubbed "Ripplecasts". Ripplecasts are free Quicktime movies and tutorials created by our Apple-certified trainers that cover a range of software and hardware-related subjects.
You can have our Ripplecasts appear in your iTunes application automatically by subscribing to our feed. Just follow the steps below:
1. Click the link below to launch iTunes. You must be using iTunes 6 or higher.
2. Once in iTunes click the Subscribe button next to our logo
3. In the Podcasts directory of iTunes your movie will begin downloading
4. Click the Settings buttons to control how often iTunes checks for new ripplecasts.
Below is a list of movies currently available from within iTunes.
