Maximize Your Multimedia ROI
A big announcement was made today and I think agricultural communicators should take notice. I really think you need to check this out.
XM Satellite Radio With Willie Nelson
This is ZimmCast number 52. I know that means a year but in the early week’s I did a couple extra’s at an event. It took me a few weeks to get into the rythym. It’s close enough to a year though. My how time flies when you’re having fun.
Indy Racing League Podcasting
I don’t know how interested you are in renewable fuels like ethanol or biodiesel but you ought to see what Cindy’s been doing over at DomesticFuel. That’s a ZimmComm blog that we’ve been cranking up the production on.
Beef And Veterinarians

Join NAMA For Chance At Video iPod
I’m jumping the gun just a little with this post but it’s the only time I have until later today. Here’s another reason to get “Jazzed” about NAMA. Now’s the time to join if you haven’t already. Hey, if you join then you get the “member” rate for convention in April. To provide a little incentive NAMA is holding a contest to encourage you to join or recruit someone else to join.
A ZimmCast On Rural Internet Access
The issue of rural internet access is a very important one in agricultural marketing and communications today. Last week I posted the full presentation made by Tim Ganschow, Agristar Global Networks, at the Gateway NAMA meeting. I’ve selected a couple of segments from Tim’s talk for you in this week’s ZimmCast. I hope you enjoy it.
Podcasting Applicable For Associations
A friend just sent me a copy of a recent article in Association Trends about podcasting. It requires registration to get to it. However, the one line that I can share from it is, “Not every hot new trend is applicable for assns, but podcasting certainly is!” Pretty enthusiastic endorsement for using the 2005 New Oxford American Dictionary word of the year. Even my hometown newspaper is writing about it.

The Missouri Beef Industry Council’s weekly MBIC Report this week is with David Dick who is the chairman. David provides a preview of the upcoming Cattle Industry Convention and NCBA Trade Show. I’ll be blogging the conference right here and on a new blog that will be announced soon!
