I did a 45-minute podcasting presentation at MEMO yesterday which focused on some of the practical aspects of podcasting. One of the things we talked a bit about was equipment for video podcasting. (I really don't like the "vodcasting" or "vlogging" name.) I'm thinking about starting a video podcast, so ...

NECC is back and in Atlanta this year. I'll be doing two identical half-day workshops (Podcasting—The New Voice for ...

I'm a pretty sneaky guy, and I believe in the power of leaders leading with technology. So when our Director of H.R. asked me if I had any ideas about how we could streamline the process of recording applicant interviews, I thought it was a great opportunity to get the ...

Apple just released a new game for the iPod called iQuiz (iTunes link). It's got four built-in games, but the potentially cool part is the ability to create new quizzes for it.

My first guest was Sonny Portacio, geocacher and Director of Technology for the Escondido Union High School District. Sonny has been doing a ton of work with geocaching lately. He's created ...

I had a great time presenting at NECC on Wednesday. I captured the audio (albeit in a low-quality version) and attached my Keynote slides as an enhanced podcast. I'm also linking to a pure audio MP3 version in case your computer can't handle AAC-encoded media.
I posted the links for my ...

I gave a half-day workshop this morning on iPods, iTunes, and podcasting. We generated a pretty good list of ideas for uses of this technology in classrooms and schools:
Collect field notes during a science field trip
Living museum, researching characters
"Radio shows"
Creating audio guides for local museums
Teacher powerpoints
Early language learners, (rhyming, etc.)
Staff ...
