Program looks cool and straight forward but I have a unique, (I believe) problem I am trying to solve and would like some direction before I begin. From what I've read, it doesn't look like I can automate the process I've outlined below but please corect me if I'm wrong. Any help is appreciatted.

My friend is recovering from several months of surgery and I want to provide him with positive messages to keep his spirits up as he undergoes several more months of rehab. My goal is to provide friends/family a hotline to call so they can leave a message that will be placed on his iPod via a Podcast. I've broken this process down into 3 pieces. Voicemail Capture, Create Podcast, Subscribe to Podcast.

I have solved the Voicemail Capture piece using PhoneValet (great product!!) and the Subscribe to Podcast is straight forward.

Where I am stuck and hoping this product can help is in the creation of the Podcast. I realize FFA can create a podcast and post it but how can I use FFA to post the incoming messages to the webserver automatically? I am recieving about 20 per day and although I am willing to manually update the feed, I would like to have this automated. ie messages come into a single playlist in iTunes and I would like to have them posted to the feed as they come in.

I'm new at this stuff and willing to learn but there has to be a simple way to automate this process. Any help is appreciatted. [/i][/b]

That is a very interesting (and honorable) application :)

However, I haven't come up with any good ideas on how to further automate that process. I will keep thinking about it, and post back if I come up with anything.

Just thinking out loud, but what about creating a blog with these somehow. Then getting a feed from the blog?
