Here’s another story on podcasting that’s especially good if you’re not convinced that this blogging thing is a good idea. Chief Marketer has a story they took away from a recent Ad:Tech Chicago session that suggests you might just be better off going directly to podcasting.
All About Podcasting
After hearing all the interest in podcasting expressed at the Agricultural Media Summit I thought I’d offer these tidbits. To start with a company called Ralston360 has created a virtual podcast for you that explains podcasting. Spend a few minutes and watch this. It’s not only well done but they used the same video iPod I own as their screen image. This is high up on the cool factor and brought to my attention by Steve Rubel.
Updates To Monsanto Podcast Site
Speaking of podcasting. We were speaking about podcasting here in the office just now (really). Here’s an update to Monsanto’s Conversations About Plant Biotechnology. This very well done production now has a “total number of video segments with growers to more than 35 and representing nine of the 21 countries that grew biotech crops in 2005.” They’ve also updated the website.
Using The New Media Tools
The program this week is a followup to the Agricultural Media Summit in Portland, Oregon. Interest is very high in using new media tools like agriblogging and farm podcasting.
Steve’s Last MBIC Report Podcast
The first ag group that I know of that started podcasting is the Missour Beef Industry Council. That’s thanks to the now former Executive Director Steve Taylor.
Podcasting To Peru Farmers
Not all farm podcasts have to be downloaded onto a digital audio player. I just found a story from earlier this year on bbc.co.uk. In Peru, telecentres (local broadcasting outlets) are subscribing to farm podcasts to obtain the information so they can broadcast it. The organization behind it is Practical Action.
Loos Tales Podcast
I’ve got some serious updating to do on my blog and podcast pages after this week of learning about new ones in agriculture. Like Loos Tales which you’ll find on Feedstuffs website. Loos Tales is produced by Trent Loos.
NASS Is Podcasting
I always learn a lot when I teach a workshop. Sometimes I think I learn as much as the people who are attending.
Workshop Follow Up
The Agriblogging and Farm Podcasting workshop is over. I would estimate about 70 in attendance. For some reason I didn’t get any more pics for you but I might find one that someone else took and add it later.
Agriblogging and Farm Podcasting Workshop
Hello from Portland and the Ag Media Summit. I’m here in the Portland Hilton, Galleria North room ready to start another workshop on how to blog and podcast.
I’ll probably post during the presentation too and have a summary of how it went for you later.
