For those of you who are looking for a place to upload files (mp3, video clips, etc), check ut Box.net (http://box.net). It is quite sweet - you get 1 GB of free storage. That is quite a bit! :R

Why don't you try it out and post your thoughts about it here. If/when we start doing FretNet recordings, whether they end up on a CD or not, it might work for sharing the work as it progresses.

Let me know your thoughts, my friends.

OK, Robert, I'll try it. Thanks for the info!:)
Looks easier than savefile, too.
Here's my first attempt...

Very nice Robert. This looks like a very good thing.
One small step for pickers - a giant leap for fretkind.

Thanks Robert - simple and free! Gotta love that.
I just uploaded at about 55kbs and the MP3 only took seconds.
Sweet!

As always Robert, you've done it again! How'd you stumble across that site? Man what a sweet deal and the transfer speeds are great!

Well, I am a web developer and good tools like this one I often hear about. I would also recommend www.netvibes.com - it's a really neat site that keeps track of all sorts of other sites for you. Box.net is available there too.

I'm going to see if I have got this right. Here goes nothin'!

Well I'll be a monkey on a cat's tail! This works cool!

Now I just need to get a connector cable (1/4" male to 1/8" male), and give the recording a go with Audacity (which I already have up and runnin') and my cornputer.

This forum rocks! It is the cat's meow!:D

(I hope Alex Bugnon is not upset as I copied a piece of his song off the radio...strictly for educational use in this forum. :R Very nice song too, I might add.:) )
