Micro Persuasion has a link to ipodlounge’s iPod 101 tutorial Beginner’s Guide to Podcast Creation. Steve writes, it “walks through the different elements you need to create a simple podcast, from computer and microphone through to the finished product.”
Don’t know if you need to add a podcast to your products? Ketchum Ideas outlines several pros and cons in having a corporate podcast.
To podcast….
- If your information has a long shelf-life
- If you don’t necessarily need your audience to access your news instantly
- If you want your listeners to have control over when they receive your information
- If you want to transmit information easily worldwide without the technical requirements of a live Web cast or broadcast licenses
…or not to podcast
- If your information is time-sensitive
- If you’re a publicly traded company looking to rely on podcasting to meet the SEC’s RegFD requirements
- If you need a large, live audience to receive your information at the same time, in real-time
In addition to the advice, there are lots of good links for podcasting beginners. (Also found this via Micro Persuasion.)
