		<content type="html"><![CDATA[<P>As the internet progresses and matures, communication is becomming increasingly automated.&nbsp; Blogs were a way for people write, journal style, their ideas on various subjects.&nbsp; Then along came MP3 players and initially people used them only to listen to their CDs and legal downloads (and probably some illegal ones as well).&nbsp; When radio broadcasters started converting their content to MP3s, the Podcast was born.&nbsp; </P>
<P>Now technology marches on again and those MP3 players play video.&nbsp; So the podcast is morphing into a&nbsp;<A href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vodcast" target=_blank>Video Podcast</A>&nbsp;(sometimes shortened to vidcast or vodcast according to Wikipedia).&nbsp; So broadcasters ability to spread their content continues allowing more people the opportunity to be seen as well as heard.&nbsp; The ability to watch and listen to this content anywhere at any time, even on a plane, increases the popularity of the format.&nbsp; <BR><BR>Recognizing this trend, we at Morvay Web Works started investing time, effort and money into&nbsp;learning what the internet is capable of.&nbsp; Once we understand an aspect of the internet, competently offer&nbsp;our expertise as a service to anyone requsting our help.&nbsp; We also complete our offerings with internet products that we actively use ourselves with our web presence.&nbsp; </P>
<P>We will use this blogcast to discuss some of the latest trends, problems, and observations folks may have with the internet.&nbsp; We specialize in explaining complex subjects simply, so the layperson can understand.&nbsp; We plan on&nbsp;using three formats (text, audio and some video) to help with our explanations.&nbsp; If we are successful, then anyone would understand how a web site works and the various technologies that drive it.&nbsp; </P>
<P>If there is a topic or trend you would like us to review, please contact us at <A href="http://www.morvaywebworks.com/" target=_blank>MorvayWebWorks.com</A>-&gt; Click on the "Contact Us" button and fill in the form near the bottom of the page.&nbsp;&nbsp; </P>
<P>As technologies march on, we will continue providing services at prices everyone can easily afford.&nbsp; This cuts into our bottom line, but should allow a greater number of folks the opportunity to use the technology the internet offers to all.&nbsp; </P>
<P>Sincerely,</P>
<P>Dan</P>]]></content>
