A test of technology

I am speaking to you from Vermont, where it is gray and November-like. It has warmed up quite a bit over the last few days so the sugaring has stopped and the snow has pretty much melted and is pouring down the rivers.
I work next to the Winooski River and it has been raging -- and rising -- all day. It's up about two feet from this morning. But it's nothing like 1927 ....

This is a test, really, of an audio blogging service we happened upon called utterli.com. It's great. I've dictated this podcast, pressed a button on my account and it is automatically posted to this site.
We've been looking for a way for kids without much computer equipment to podcast. With this service, you can call in and, later, access the account and the audio blog will be automatically posted to the site.

It's cool. But there is one drawback: The call is long distance.

Anyone have an alternative for free audio blogging for kids?
