  • NaPodPoMo 2010 Wrap Up

    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.

  • NaPodPoMo Day 3: Why Do A Camp?

    [display_podcast]

    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!

    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.

    On day 4 of National Podcast Post Month I interview Laura Ross from the Flyswatter Show. Laura is one of the original NaPodPoMo podcasters from year one who has come back again to join the fun.

    As of November 1st, Laura has restarted her podcast after an extended hiatus. The nice thing is that she still had all the equipment she needed to get back into her recording groove.

    You can connect with Laura Ross on Twitter @flyswatter or Facebook and LinkedIn as Laura Ross.

  • PodCamp San Antonio: Numero Dos

    Podcamp San Antonio

    In one month, May 3rd to be exact PodCamp San Antonio: Numero Dos will be in full swing. The PodCamp festivities will begin on Friday, May 2nd. We’ll be hanging out on Red Gizmo’s patio inside the Blue Star Arts Complex. Come on down and enjoy the art, music, food plus some of Blue Star Brewery’s tasty brew. I’m really looking forward to reliving some of last years experience, but this time with an artsy vibe.

    First Friday is one of the events we always make an effort to take friends and family when they visit San Antonio. Everyone always has a good time. For me this will be even better because I’ll get to combine several things I like into one fantastic night: Art, Brew, Fun and doing it all with my Podcasting Buds.

    Although, we’re going to have a great time Friday night, the real fun starts on Saturday morning. We’ll kickoff PodCamp San Antonio: Numero Dos at 9:00am in the El Habana room at the El Tropicano Hotel. There were several places we could have chosen to be our PodCamp location, but one thing I like doing is showcasing and highlighting different aspects to the Alamo City. There is an amazing and rich culture in San Antonio. One that goes beyond the Riverwalk and the Alamo.

    The El Tropicano Hotel is on the Northern end of the Riverwalk. Which is exactly where the Expansion Phase (ie. construction) is taking place. For a moment I wondered if we should hold PodCamp here, but that thought quickly disappeared once I walked into the hotel. 1960 Acapulco Retro describes it perfectly. You feel transported back in time as you walk around the lobby of the hotel. The decor looks right out of a movie set. The latin music in the background helps to bring the scene full circle. El Habana shares a wall with the tropical birds and iguanas in the hotel’s aviary. How cool is that? This hotel offers a one of a kind experience that’s for sure. If we wanted to showcase something unique about San Antonio, I knew we had found it El Tropicano. We’ll wrap up the session by 5:00pm and make our way down to relax along the Riverwalk. We had such a good time last year at the Naked Iguana we may just wind up there again.

    For those not ready to end the PodCamp fun, we’ll meet at Cafe Latino to enjoy some tasty brew out on the patio. Gary Ard has done a fantastic job creating the perfect place to relax and enjoy a delicious cup of coffee. The patio comes complete with 3 Hookah Tents for folks wishing to partake in this Turkish custom. Jackie and I will record the Morning BrewCast LIVE!  It’s sure to be a good time for all.

    I look forward to seeing everyone next month for PodCamp San Antonio: Numero Dos.

  • NaBloPoMo Day 29 – The Tale End?

    With only 1 more day to go before the NaBloPoMo challenge is complete it almost seems as though it didn’t happen at all.  It has gone by relatively fast and the fact that we’ve been doing this for 29 days seems unreal. I almost don’t believe it and I’m the one who did it.

    So with only 1 more day to go, I’m left to ponder my daily blogging and podcasting future. It’s tempting to stop, but also tempting to just keep going. I’ve heard that it takes 30 days to make or break a habit. I would say that after tomorrow I will have created a new habit for myself. Daily podcasting & blogging.

    What does that mean? Well it could mean that I’m free to continue the NaPodPoMo and NaBloPoMo experiences. When I look back on the last months posts I see bits of myself in both the audio and written format.  Yet I haven’t even begun to scratch the surface of the things I’m passionate about. Things that interest me. Things that are fun. Things that me go ???

    After all tomorrow is another day.
