Dean,

Yes, managing your feed with a blog is your best bet.  For free options:

1.  Blogger (by Google):

This is probably your best bet.  You can even use your own domain and have
Blogger manage the domain as far as content goes.

2.  Wordpress.com:

This is another option and would be my second choice.

3.  LiveJournal:

This would be my third option if you are strictly talking a podcast blog.

Subject: recommendations for podcast feed

I'm trying to get over some seemingly simple technical hurdles that seem to
be stumping me.

I'm looking to relaunch my podcast on a firm footing.  I can host the files
myself, and am not looking to generate comments, so would only want a blog
as a means to distribute the podcast;.  I'm not afraid to write my own feed,
but would rather it be generated automatically.  I'm trying a cool thing
called dircaster, which is supposed to generate an rss feed automatically
from ID3 tags of mp3 files that you upload, but so far it hasn't worked for
me.  If anybody has used it, I'd love to do some troubleshooting.

Given this scenario, what service would you recommend that I use to
generate a feed with as little labor as possible?    If I need to
create a blog to achieve the desired end, which blog service do people
prefer these days?

Thanks in advance.

Dean
