How to insert Audio into a WordPress.com blog

I have been researching how to insert audio into a WordPress.com blog I have, and realized that I need to Upgrade Space in order to be able to upload audio files from my computer.  Otherwise, the only way of playing audio on the blog is to use the default player and use a shortcode for linking to the audio file hosted somewhere on the internet.

Take a look at this very useful guide I found on this.

Guides to the use of Kindle Fire

I just purchased the Kindle Fire and is wondering how to transfer files from my computer to it - files such as music, documents, eBooks etc.  I found out that you will need to have a mini USB to a USB port cable to connect between the computer and the Fire.  This cable does not come with the Fire.  Another option, you can use the Amazon Cloud Drive, and upload your files to it, then when you tap on the CLOUD option on the device, it should automatically see the files on the Cloud Drive.

If you have a epub, I also found an application called Calibre (download) to easily convert it into a .mobi format to be read on the Fire. Another thing to remember, sign in to the same account you use for the Cloud Drive and the Kindle Fire.  To turn on Flash Player on your Kindle, which is not by default, tap on WEB, and choose the Option icon at the bottom of the screen, and click Settings (this is different from the Kindle Setting on the top right corner). Then you will scroll to find Enable Flash and turn it on.

Lots of nice discoveries as I am exploring the way into using  my new Kindle.  I love it!
