Social Speech Podcast, Episode 7: Chris Brogan
May 04, 2012 08:46 - 11.7 MBFor several years now, Chris Brogan's blog has been a must-read for anyone who wants to use social media productively.

Social Speech Podcast, Episode 5: Ian Griffin
April 16, 2012 18:40 - 11.4 MBWith this episode, we flip the mic (metaphorically) and talk with someone who's a lot more used to writing speeches than delivering them.

BBC: podcasting still around, and it's bigger than Twitter
October 20, 2011 23:17Podcasting, as any social media guru worth her or his robes knows, is dead. Like so many social technologies, it failed to jump the adoption gap, break the hype cycle or clear the Great Hurdle of At-First-Raving-and-then-Dismissive Punditry. Except that the common wisdom - that podcasts are the 3-1/2" floppy disk of the 2000s - has been lost on one group of people: listeners. According to a BBC story from the summer, [P]odcasting has continued to grow and grow. More than eight million...
