How can I add an audio file and flash player to my blog

Normally, you'll need to upload the audio file to a file storage site like archive.org or box.net.  During class you can upload files to JeffLebow.net/ttp-files.

To add a flash player for the audio, you'll need to create a new post, select 'Edit Html' and use this code:

<embed flashvars="audioUrl=MP3_FILE_URL" height="22" quality="best" src="http://worldbridges.net/files/3523697345-audio-player.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400"></embed>

(replacing 'MP3_FILE_URL' with the URL of your audio file)

One of the sites that supports public links to mp3 files is PBWorks.  When uploading your files there, RIGHT click on the file download link and copy link address.
