  • Daily Blogging and an Ode to RSS

    One of my favorite Twitter lists which I follow regularly in Flipboard is “Gigaom Vets.” The list includes people who previously worked for GigaOm magazine, which has been rebooted but unexpectedly fired all its staff in March 2015. They were an amazing group of tech and tech culture journalists, and they still are, except now they…

  • Podiant: A Great Platform for Podcasting and Migrated Podcasts

    Over the past 10+ years our family members have recorded a lot of podcast episodes in different places using different apps and websites. My all-time favorite remains AudioBoom (previously AudioBoo) where we still have 227 episodes available online. Some of my favorites there include: “USS Arizona Impressions” (very touching spiritual insights from a 6 year old)…

  • Audio Podcasting Workflows (August 2016)

    Audio podcasts are one of my favorite types of media products to create and share. While images and video clips used in narrated slideshow and quick edit video projects can significantly enhance engagement and learning for people watching and listening, those elements can also add significant time requirements as well as layers of complexity to…

  • Podcasting Costs with Amazon S3

    Back in May of 2013, I migrated to a new web host which would not host the hundreds of audio podcasts I’d published since 2005. I needed to find a separate hosting company for my podcasts, and I opted to go with Amazon S3. My friend, James Deaton (@jed), had educated me about the benefits…

  • Lessons Learned using Storycorps iPhone App for Family Oral History Interviews

    Today I interviewed my mom and my dad about some of their life experiences using the free Storycorps iPhone app. Our son used the app last fall during his Boy Scout Eagle Project, which involved interviewing local senior citizens about their lives. Alex didn’t have any problems with the app for the interviews he and…

  • Workflow Publishing 30 Normalized Conference Audio Recordings

    I spent most of the day today editing, normalizing, uploading and publishing 30 conference audio recordings from the October 23-24, 2015, Write Well, Sell Well Conference for Writers in Oklahoma City. This is something that’s been hanging over my head for the two months since the conference ended, so I’m very glad to have this…
