FIR Interview: Podcast 101 class at NewComm Forum - 03/07/07
FIR Interview: Podcast 101 class at NewComm Forum - 03/07/07
In this edition of For Immediate Release podcast interviews, Shel had participants in a preconference session on podcasting at the New Communications Forum (Las Vegas, Nevada) produce a podcast. The exercise wrapped up the half-day workshop and was designed to impress upon participants just how easy it is to record, edit, and upload a podcast. Robin Browne, a communicator from Canada, volunteered to serve as interviewer and host. The group decided to talk about how they use their cell phones for activities other than phone calls and how the evolving use of mobile technology could impact their organizations’ communication efforts. This is the resulting podcast.
Since these are interviews, this seemed like the best place to put the show.
