+# OpenPod
+
+OpenPod è il tentativo di restituire al podcasting la dimensione libera e conviviale che lo caratterizza sin dai suoi esordi.
+
+Siamo tre amici che registrano, ascoltano, producono contenuti audio. Ci piacerebbe condividere soluzioni per farlo con hosting e software libero e gratuito, senza far ricorso ad account, profilazione, abbonamenti, pubblicità e monetizzazione.
+
+Com'è possibile? Combinando l'hosting di archive.org, i feed rss, un pizzico di codice e alcune buone pratiche per la produzione dei vostri contenuti. Perché? Per liberarci dalla logica prestazione e commerciale che caratterizza il business model dominante, anche nelle nuove forme di fruizione sonora ma specialmente per generare comunità. Un progetto aperto e abilitante, che punta a mettere a fattor comune saperi comunitari.
+
+Chi c'è? UAU POD, APE Podcast, Picchi di frequenza, Fuori fase..e tutte quanti vorranno condividere con noi l'avventura.
+
+## Usage
+
+In case of you have docker available on your server, you can run `Openpod` through a docker image:
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm \
+  -e SECRET_KEY_BASE='my-very-long-secret-key' \
+  -e APP_PORT=4000 \
+  -e APP_HOST='openpod.abbiamoundominio.org' \
+  -e APP_SCHEME=https \
+  -p 80:4000 \
+  openpod/open-pod:latest
+```
+
+After sever is started you can visit
+
+`$APP_SCHEME://$APP_HOST/podcast/$PODCASTNAME`,
+
+where $PODCASTNAME is the name of your item on archive.org, to get your podcast feed
+
+i.e. 'https://openpod.abbiamoundominio.org/podcast/uau-pod'
+
