Creating a Podcast: Community Divas Live! with Eden Spodek & Connie Crosby Podcamp Montreal 2008

Today’s discussion • Why? • How? • What would you like to see?

No.....really!

Community!!

First - get organized!

We use Google Docs to organize ourselves and share technical notes

things to map out • who is your audience? • ﬁnd a name & a web domain • format • episode length / content / frequency • music, introduction, closing - podsafe music

Prepping for episodes

Background notes on each speaker includes photo, links & interview questions

our technology

the importance of mentors

“We buoy each other up” - Scarborough Dude

We help each other out

ﬁnding time • we record whenever we can ﬁnd the time • our goal is to be able to interview individually • both of us should be able to do post- production so either one of us can do it • streamline recordings as much as possible

getting the podcast out •the blog / host - Libsyn • Feedburner • iTunes...

getting word out • Community Divas blog • our own blogs • podcast directories • twitter • facebook page • friendfeed room

what’s next • improving sound & getting more comfortable • submitting podcast to Canada Podcasts directory & Canadian Podcast Buffet (remember also Le Québec en Baladodiffusion) • lots more great interviews planned! • pulling community/events together in our Facebook page • supporting our community

What else would you like to see?

Suggestions from the session • more about face-to-face traditional communities • working with social change agencies • discussing differences between the communities we are building in Facebook, Friendfeed, Twitter esp. statistics
