Might Be Nothing II

I don't know how long it's been around, and I wasn't willing to slog through the registration forms for the discussion forum to pinpoint a date, but the new version of Wink, I'm happy to report, is built to include sound with each frame of the screencast. 

Purely for kicks, I went ahead and pieced together an experimental fizzcast to see just how well the new Wink works.  Reddy?

I know, I know.  I can't say much for the fizzcast itself, but I am encouraged about the possibilities involving an easy-to-use and free podcasting app.  From what I could tell, Wink grabs the audio as a wav file.  The sound editing options are skimpy, but it would be easy enough to edit the wav file in Audacity then re-associate it with the screen capture.  The audio files are handled separately for each frame in the podcast, making it easy to give 20-40 seconds bites on each slide.
