MAY 14, 2013

In the beginning, TechSoup’s Marnie Webb, Daniel Ben-Horin, and Billy Bicket created NetSquared to "remix the web for social change." To get going, they built the first NetSquared website using open-source Drupal. The NetSquared website was itself designed to be a model Web 2.0 Podcasting. Google Maps.

I don't have as much experience with podcasting considering I just put my first one up this week, but I thought I would share how I did it for anyone who was interested in producing their own. I chose Gcast because you can easily embed your podcast into your blog or webpage. I hope that helps aspiring podcasters.

As I mentioned in my November 3rd post , I am working as a Community Builder with NetSquared , a project of Tech Soup. You can hear last month's speakers, Chris Messina from Flock , CompuMentor's Marnie Webb and yours truly, on the NetSquared Channel on Odeo. I'm double blogging right now, here and on the NetSquared blog.

I can't tell you how often people ask me if I think their supporters would listen to a podcast. Whatever you do, please don't abandon your out-of-date, un-updated blog, Facebook group, Twitter feed, etc. We have to spend time on the (blog, podcast, Facebook page, Twitter, wiki, fundraising widget etc.). What a pain!"

For every online social network training we do, we actually present the ning site and demonstrate ways participants can create and customize profiles, syndicate RSS feeds, post blogs, photos and videos and more.

I've also been inspired to experiment with video blog posts and podcasts. s blogs feed (if you can deal with an overflow of posts that is.) And Netsquared. button a lot on my own blog. m delighted with the positive feedback, the growing readership and the contacts I made. But that really takes up time.
