After going through the tutorials, another feature of podcasting that I have learned in keeping with the information in the track editor, is the concept of adding urls within the podcast. In addition to chapter markers, pictures can have a hyperlinked text added to them that take the listener to a particular webpage. This can be useful to give your listener more to explore beyond what you are talking about. Your listener can click on your links and look at other photos, information or they can simply research your topic in more depth on their own time. It is fairly simple to add linked text. First you must click on the picture represented in the track editor that you would like to ad a link to. If you scroll to the right of the chapter markers section you will see a section called "url title." To the right of that box is the "url" box. You can use the title box to give your link a name. You might want to name it something to inform your listener that they can click on the title to bring them to a web page. After you have given your link a name, click enter to finalize your title. Then scroll to the right and click inside the "url" box. In this box you can paste your copied web link or simply type the link into the box and click enter. Now when you export your podcast, your listener will see your url title at the bottom of the picture you have attached it to. Your listener can then click on the url title and navigate to the web content you have decided to add to your podcast.
