I liked the abundant show reference links that I was able to click while you were “plogging” ..

Thanks for the kind words all – I expect we’ll do a brief one later this week (new equipment arrives on Wednesday), then we’ll take a hiatus until we’re up and running full speed the following week.

We’ll get on a regular schedule soon.

thanks!

That was fabulous. Cheers on your first podcast. It was informative.

You did great! Gilmore gang! Haha!

Pretty good job, Matt – well done.

As the first commenter said, you had some small issues with sound consistentcy throughout – but I know nothing about podcating so can’t help you out :-)

I like the concept – I could easily listen to a 20 minutes show that included 10-15 short pieces of blogging news with your opinions after each piece (and when I say opinon I mean a real opinion ie: make it colorful).

I wouldn’t want you to go on too long with a story though – make ‘em quick and snappy – maybe incorporate a small 2-3 second interlude sound bit between them – and make sure you keep to a regular schedule: one thing I hate with many podcasts is they start great: 1 show a week, week-in, week-out and then they get lazy and it’s a show there and a show here.

Anyhow, just my 2 cents and keep it up – I’m subscribed.

Hi,

Thanks – we definately have some work to do but it’s a start. We’ll get better – and the professional gear is on the way… ;)

Thanks for the kind words,

Always good to see someone else adding podcasting to their blog. However, I noticed some audio inconsistencies in the first five minutes. If you aren’t monitoring your vocals as you go, I’d suggest starting. Good luck to you.
