Introducing “FIR On Technology With Dan York”

The FIR Podcast Network is pleased to announce a new podcast on technology that will begin on December 31, 2013. Presenter Dan York explains…

Future tech

How can communicators best use new tools such as, say, Google+ Hangouts On Air to tell their stories in new ways or to reach new audiences? Are there tips and tricks they should be aware of? What is new in the latest release of WordPress? Why should someone in PR and marketing care about something like IPv6 or HTML5?

I’m Dan York and since 2005 I’ve been providing weekly reports into the For Immediate Release podcast where I’ve looked at questions such as these - what are the changes we are seeing in technology and why should communicators care about these changes.

Now, with the launch of the FIR Podcast Network I’ll be diving into more detail in "FIR On Technology With Dan York". Rather than just a 5-minute report, these periodic podcasts will take 15, 20, 30, 40 minutes or however long it takes to cover the subject.

Since the mid-1980s I’ve been working with online technologies - always with one foot deep in the technology and one foot deep in explaining the technology and using the technology for PR / marketing of various organizations. Today I work for a global non-profit where my task is to help persuade, inform and educate people about how new technologies can make the Internet work better, faster and be more secure.

In FIR On Technology episodes I’ll be bringing you the benefit of the view into both of those worlds - how the technology works and how you can use it - and I’ll be interviewing people who are leaders in their fields. I have no agenda - I’m just here to educate and to learn along the way and share my experiences.

If you have ideas for topics you’d like to hear me cover, I’d love to hear from you. Either leave a message in the FIR Podcast Community on Google+ or contact me directly at DanYork@forimmediaterelease.biz. FIR On Technology shows can be found at the main website at www.forimmediaterelease.biz.

Please join me in exploring where the technology behind communications is going!

Dan.
