Podcast Tune-Up Launches Smart Media Training Events
Podcast Tune-Up launches Smart Media 2009 training events to better educate PR agencies, marketing professionals, and independent producers on new media development best-practices and the tools to make creative efforts successful. Participants will learn to properly use a microphone, light video, use Twitter and FaceBook, and optimize podcast descriptive metadata - all in an effort to create new opportunities to effectively communicate with customers. Every session is a hands-on learning experience not experienced at other workshops, expo’s, or training events. This is a must attend event for any Utah business which desires to compete in the new networked economy!
Smart Content or Smart Media?
When was the last time you had an experience when “reading” print or online news? A recent post on Digital Signage Insights brings to mind some interesting questions when considering the state of “traditional” news.
Podcast Standards: Post 6 - Descriptive Data “title” Tag Primer [IBNMA]
Need: Every podcaster must understand the importance and use of descriptive data as a strategy to attract and maintain subscriptions.
Podcasters generally do not use XML feed metadata effectively to capture and keep their subscribers engaged in episodic content. Descriptive data is not hard to compose but it does take effort to properly plan and implement such data to advance a show. Dive into the reasons why and get serious about your metadata!
Podcast Standards: Post 5 - What is a podcast? No Really! [IBNMA]
Need: Every podcaster to have a clear understanding of what a podcast represents technically so that its properly explained in context.
Do you know what a podcast represents? Do you know how to properly describe that understanding to someone who doesn’t know in a precise and clear manner? All too many times I hear people say that a podcast is a series of “shows”, that an individual episode is a podcast, or that a podcast is a new type of media. Confusion abounds! Let’s make sure that every IBNMA member knows how to clear up the misconceptions.
