Today marks the beginning of the audio marathon I call NaPodPoMo or National Podcast Post Month. Over the course of the next 30 days podcasters from around the globe will be podcasting daily with the goal of having 30 podcasts completed by November 30th.
This is the 5th year we have done NaPodPoMo. I use this monthly long audio recording frenzy as an opportunity to try new things. From platforms to tools to style to shows I call it my experimentation time. Some experiments work out beautifully and continue on such as Tech in Twenty from year 2 while others go the way of the dodo like my effort in year 3. Regardless of the success rate of my experiments the one thing that holds true is that I learn something new each time.
For many folks who have been curious about podcasting this is a great opportunity to learn. With a podcast due each and everyday the learning curve is fast. No time to freak out about a less than stellar performance. Chalk it up to experience and put your game face on for the next day’s show. One thing that is always true is that your 30th podcast will be markedly improved from your day 1 podcast.
For veteran podcasters, NaPodPomo is the opportunity to recapture the love of the audio medium. There is no doubt that folks who started podcasting in the early days 2004-2006 love audio. Recording a podcast has never been easier with all the mobile apps and online services at our fingertips. Discovering new tools to do recording, editing and posting is exciting and fun.
Whatever the reason you are joining us for this year’s NaPodPoMo challenge, I welcome you into the fold. My advice is to forgive yourself quickly and enjoy the journey.
Cheers!
During the 2010 National Podcast Post Month, I endeavored to work on combating my Shiny Object Syndrome (SOS). Like most things in life, what I planned and what actually happened were two entirely different things.
If you will recall, my topic was “How To Make A Camp”. It was going well. I recorded 11 days of podcasts faithfully until day 12 hit. Client projects and general busyness took me away from the daily NaPodPoMo podcasts. So, instead of throwing in the towel, I opted to record the remaining podcasts in one sitting.
On November 30th, I sat down with my outline and hit the record button 20 times (19 podcasts plus 1 to intro my mad dash recording frenzy). It was fast, furious and a whole hell of a lot of fun. I love podcasting. National Podcast Post Month always reminds me what got me into all of this social media craziness to begin with.
If you want to hear all of the 30 audio posts you can do it by checking out my NaPodPoMo 2010 Album on Cinch.
On day four, it is all about the who factor. Just who should organize a camp?
Really anyone can, but it takes a dedicated team of organizers and volunteers to make a camp happen. While sessions are not created until the day of the event, that doesn’t mean there aren’t things that need to be put in place to make sure it is a success.

On day three, I share what I consider to be the three reasons you should consider doing a camp.
BTW, the feedback on this series has been great. Love that this topic has turned into a dialogue. Yesterday’s podcast, What Is A Camp received a couple of thought provoking response from @LynetteRadio & @TheGrannyGamer
Here is the link to their insightful comments.
I have a question for you. In what way would you all prefer me to respond to feedback? Within the daily podcasts, in a separate Cinch recording or via blog post? I’m open to your suggestions.
Cheers!
On today’s podcast the concept of Camp is discusses. What it is and more importantly what it isn’t. The meaning behind the whole Learn, Share, Grow of a user-generated conference as well as the definition of a successful event.
It’s that time of year again. The month of November heralds a whole host of online community events. From National Novel Writing Month to National Blog Post Month to Movember there is no shortage to the types of events in which one can participate.
For year 4 of NaPodPoMo, I have chosen to podcast about The Anatomy of a Camp. As someone who has been organizing camps in San Antonio area since 2007, I felt it was time to share some of that experience and knowledge. It will cover concepting to venues to sponsors to technology. From pre to during to post, my goal is to cover every aspect of what it takes to make a camp happen.
NaPodPoMo Day 1
We are on day 10 of National Podcast Post Month and I thought I would take the time to share my thoughts on the experience. When I came up with the idea to interview NaPodPoMo podcasters, I had a pretty good idea of what to expect…or so I thought.
Larry’s show for NaPodPoMo is called Behind the Wheel and is part of his The Magnum Life podcast http://themagnumlife.com/
Listen in to get this podcasting pioneer’s take on the evolution of podcasting, what it takes to get started and where his new show is going. (I’m still holding out for an “On The Road Restaurant Review” segment).

Luis talks about what podcasting has done for him and how he is moving forward. As is the case with most podcasters, Luis has branched out to several podcasts and has plans for several more.
His wife, Angel has started her own podcast for NaPodPoMo called Domestic Goddess Lessons. http://domesticgoddesslessons.blogspot.com/ It would appear that podcasting is like a cold. Hang around long enough and you just might catch it. 😉
