Tonight's tasks are below.
I am learning how to use Dropbox.
My plan is to have all the materials, including the podcasts, on Dropbox.
I can have a lot of stuff loaded there without cost, so intend to stop using Soundcloud when my subscription is due to be renewed.
This will save me a significant amount of money.
If you plan to continue to listen to the podcasts, you will need a Dropbox account.
If you don't already have one, go to this link: http://db.tt/aQGZ6IUU
You only need to enter a few details and you will have an account.
Dropbox will notify me and I'll link your e-mail address to my files on Dropbox.
You will then be able to download and listen to them.
If you already have a Dropbox account, let me know the linked e-mail address and I'll set the links so you can access the files.
My e-mail address is in "Contact us" above.
