  • Summarizing Some New Media Work

    NAFB Mult BoxFor those of you who wonder what I mean when I mention a “mult box,” here’s a picture of NAFB’s in heavy use at yesterday’s Washington Watch session. It’s what allows multiple people to easily connect to the audio feed from a podium for example. If you want to help the media out then you need one of these at your press conference.

    Today’s a travel day for the agriblogger. I’m looking forward to some email catch up on the plane and a little analysis of some of the new things we’re doing like AgWired Mobile and AgWired Live TV. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

    For you aspiring new media ag journalists I thought I’d summarize a one person multi event coverage week. Here’s some stats from the last few days:

    370 digital photos, 215 of them loaded into 2 Flickr sets
    15 audio interviews/press conference recordings
    2 live video/audio streamed press conferences
    1 YouTube video
    posting/udpating on 5 different blogs
    1 recorded/edited podcast
    2 client site media production training sessions
    12 mobile service story updates

    Not too bad for an old guy, eh? If I can do it, then I know that you can do it too. Need help, just give me a call.
