The Seattle Podcasting Network

A great time was had by all tonight. Our monthly meetup was back at Pyramid Alehouse, and it was just like old times. Great, wide-ranging discussion; a lot of food for thought, chased down by some smooth Pyramid Porter.

If you were at the Pyramid tonight, please leave your name and URL (if any) and any links or comments that you’d like to share by clicking on the EasyEdit button, below, or by leaving a comment.

(Note that you’ll have to register as a user on the blog, then come back to this page in order to leave your comment. Sorry for the extra steps, but at least you’ll only have to register once.)

Ugh. Could I be any more of a slacker in getting these Meetup notes posted? Mandy even made it easy on me by taking notes.

Well, apologies all ’round to Paolo, Harry, Matt, Pakio, Luke, Leif, James, Mandy, and Omaha Sternberg (hands down the best name in podcasting). Travis and I really appreciate that y’all came out to join us for another fun evening of chatting, consuming, and camaraderie.

As usual, the discussion ranged all over the place. Paolo had some questions for the group about how to promote a new project he’s working on. Suggestions for sites he should check out flew fast and furious, and Mandy did a great job of writing them all down. So, I know this is kind of random, but check out the following list of cool conferences, sites, and services:

• Podcast Summit – corporate podcasting conference
• Building the Pod – Adobe Audition tutorials
• Lynda.com – online training library
• StoryQuest – corporate learning through podcasting
• French Maid TV – French maids teach you how to do stuff
• Podcast and New Media Expo – podcasting convention
• Podcast Academy – a how-to-podcast seminar
• PodCamp – podcasting unconference
• Podcast 411 – interviews with podcasters
• IT Conversations – IT-related podcasts. Especially check out the podcasts of John Udell and Phil Windley
• Podcast Hotel – podcasting conference
• IBM developerWorks – podcasts for software developers
• Gnomedex – technology conference
• Ustream.tv – live interactive video platform

Someone also mentioned Elizabeth’s Podcasting News, but I couldn’t find a link. If someone could leave that in the comments section, I’d be much obliged.

Thanks again, and see you in July. (Which is already here! Yikes!)

Thanks to all who came out to last night’s Meetup at Pyramid Ale House. We had a very relaxed, low-key discussion. So relaxed and low-key, in fact, that I completely failed to take any kind of attendance. I’ll try to remember everyone who came, but please forgive me if I forget someone. (Or, feel free to leave a comment to remind me.) Let’s see… Regulars who showed up last night included Travis (natch), Leif, Weave, Luke, Andrew, and yours truly. Newbies included Harry, Nick, Sam, and Dan. As always, the talk was as satisfying as the food and beer. Hope to see y’all there in May!
