So the podcast I want to do, once the legal battles over podcasting copyrighted content are through: It's like the "Pop-Up Video" approach. A group of Clubbers (more than 6-8 might be overload) are represented on-screen with avatars a la 10@10 Club forum. ("Joe McCombs in the role of Gazoo, as played today by '70s R&B artist Bobby Womack.") (I don't know if I'd prefer Clubbers to keep avatars long-term or change them from show to show.) The sound is simply the songs, not any of our comments -- so you can treat it as a background radio station on your iPod and ignore us entirely, if you wish. But if you want the value-add, watch the screen for our comments and images: the kinds of stuff we post here every day. In the name of saleability, we'd all have distinct "personalities," perhaps caricatural but not necessarily so. Each podcast would be 10 Great Songs From One Great Year, the year varying from 1965 to 1995; maybe we can go even more contempo if we feel we've been keeping up with Top 40 and other formats in the more recent years.
Has anyone else considered peeking into the brave new world of podcasting in the New Year? I honestly believe a successful program could be built on this idea.

I'm still mulling over the idea of blogging. Am I hopelessly 2003?

Sounds like fun to me.

ditto on sounds fun. I like to read blogs of others but don't feel like I have time to keep up with writing. I saw a job description yesterday that wanted you to submit your blog and online pic files like from flikr. It was related as the job had to do with blogging. I'm not yet up on podcasting. I think I kind of get it but not entirely.

While job hunting, I found one that is a possibility, but...
how do I get up to speed on,
"...an understanding of new and evolving web communications channels, such as blogs, podcasts, webcasts and multimedia is required. "
Any recommendations on how I can learn more? Why would a local tech company have a blog? What would they podcast and where and to who? How do you advertise a podcast? How is a webcast different?

Much of this is beyond me, but a blog is just a hot word, and a place to find updates, that is very simple. Podcasting is just preparing MP3's for syndication (I'm a little fuzzy on this, but it is essentially uploading and notifying people of the upload). Webcasting is usually just posting some content that can be streamed. That's pretty easy, but the live stuff is probably more complicated.
