Some advanced tasks that are built into wordpress: Blocking spam comments with Akismet (and how to get an API key), how to make a sticky post, and how to password protect a post.
I’ve been working on dialing in the proper resolution for a high quality podcast. It seems to be 720p. This week’s episode is both smaller (in size) and bigger (in resolution) than ever. You can also watch the 1/2 720p version directly from teachmewp.com. 
Enjoy.
