My Podcamp Perth 07 talk
Posted on 01. Nov, 2007 by Cameron Reilly in podcasting
Grum has posted up the talks Duncan Riley and I gave at Podcamp Perth 07 here. My talk, entitled “Why Podcasting Is Dead In The Water”, was an attempt to review the reasons people normally give for why podcasting is “dead” and my high-level analysis of the reasoning. I obviously don’t believe podcasting is dead. In fact, I think we’re just getting started. Sure – the hype cycle that podcasting experiences in 2004/05 has moved on and that’s a GOOD THING. Now we can get on with building an industry.
My Interview in Blogger and Podcaster Magazine
Posted on 08. Oct, 2007 by Cameron Reilly in podcasting
The lovely Shelly Brisbin, Editor-in-Chief of Blogger & Podcaster Magazine, interviewed me a few weeks ago and I just noticed (while crusing in B&P’s Second Life HQ) that the interview has been published. You can read it here for my perspective (if you already sick of hearing it) on podcasting.
I’m not a podcaster
Posted on 12. Sep, 2007 by Cameron Reilly in podcasting
Chris Brogan, one of the co-founders of the Podcamp movement, throws this out: “I”m not a podcaster”.
My big thing at the moment is telling people I’m not a podcaster either. Instead – “I build and commercialize communities of interest.” The podcasts are just one medium we use to build our communities. Blogs, SNS, VW, F2F meetings (like MODM), are other mediums as also employ.
And I think all businesses can say the same thing. Isn’t that what a business truly does? Build communities of people who want to solve a problem using their product and/or service? Perhaps if they thought of themselves that way, they would truly grok whats happening on the web at the moment instead of screwing it up.
Reminds me of the old story I’ve told before about astronomers before Copernicus. If you asked them what they did for a living, they would have told you “we study the way the Sun rotates around the Earth.” The very definition of who they were prevented them from ever really seeing the truth.
G’DAY WORLD #228 – Brian Dalton aka Mr Deity
Posted on 18. Apr, 2007 by Cameron Reilly in Podcast, podcasting, science vs religion
A wonderful show today. I get to talk to Brian Dalton, the comic genius behind one of the hottest video podcasts on the web today – MR. DEITY.
Brian talks about how the idea for the show came to him, his background as a “ForeMon” (a lapsed Mormon), his careers as a graphic artist, musician and filmmaker, the success of the show, the future of the show, and some production insights into how the put it together.
It was a lot of fun and if you haven’t already checked out MR DEITY, then do so now.
Don’t forget to make use of my new comments line – Aussies can dial into +613 9016 9699. The rest of you can either pay international charges (cmon, what price can you put on being on my show??) or just start begging me to set up an international number.
