While they have a small cost each month involved ($4-$6), you could even move your blog to this space and store all of your files in one place. They have instant installers of opensource software like WordPress, Joomla, Moodle, and more. You should be able to import your current blog contents with no problem. They are all experienced in this area, and I have found the tech help to be top notch. Just a thought. Check them out and see which one is a better fit for you. Congrats on the successful start. I hope it keeps going well for you. Have you looked into website hosting companies such as PowWeb, StartLogic, Host Monster or Site Ground?

I will give it a try. Right now we are using Podmatic but we are looking for anything that will give us easy uploading and use. The students were very anxious to get things going. They even stayed in at recess to do some recording - missing recess for school work - reading none the less! Who'd of thunk it! Kelly Thanks Jim. I will give it a try.

And it's free. I'm really interested in hearing your 1st and 2nd graders. I'm sure we'll all be able to hear the excitement in their voices.
