b5 Podcast #1

By Shai Coggins

We’ve been talking about doing this for ages. But, we’ve been so busy with so many things, the idea kept being set aside for another day. Well, a few days ago, a handful of b5ers just decided to give it a try and here’s what happened -


powered by ODEO

SHOW NOTES:

b5 crew: Shai (VP, Community), Christina (Channel Editor and Project Manager), Hsien (Channel Editor), William (Channel Editor), and Jayvee (Channel Editor)

This is our first experiment with doing a podcast. We’ve used Skype for the conference call, HotRecorder for audio recording, and Audacity for cleaning up some of the mess.

There were lots of noise, Skype delay, strange sounds, and giggling. But, we had fun and hopefully some of you will make sense of some of the things that we talked about.

Podcast Highlights:

  • Blogging background
  • Channel Editor talk
  • What to look for in bloggers/applicants to b5media
  • All about ‘passion blogging’
  • Some latest blog openings

You can also subscribe to the show via Odeo.

There should be a way to download the podcast, so I can store it on my Desktop and just listen to it when I have the time :)

Darlene: Thanks for the kind words! :-)

Gary: I believe there is a way to download it if you visit the Odeo page - http://odeo.com/audio/9956893/view (there’s a link to downloading the MP3 file to your desktop) and/or if you subscribe to the feed via iTunes (or another podcast client) - http://odeo.com/channel/324963/rss.xml Hope that helps!

Ack. I sound like a zombie. That’s probably good because if I were more awake, I’d have been causing more trouble. ;)

lol at Hsien, you did a great job. Now I do sound like a babbling idiot though.

Crazy bunch. Fun to listen to. :)

Shai Coggins on March 15th, 2007 at 19:02

Hsien: Haha. Looking forward to that. ;-)

William: I think it’s fun to babble every now and then. We all feel like idiots in the end. :-D

Easton: Why - thank you! Nice of you to say! :-)
