Podcasting is more popular than ever, with many organizations realizing it’s a great way to reach people while entertaining them during their morning drive, exercising, or during downtime at work. Contrary to the title of this post, there truly is no wrong way to do podcast, but there are techniques that will help maximize the […]
Once again, Facebook content publishers are feeling the pinch. Facebook announced last week a change in the algorithm that creates its user news feed. That change, by design, prioritizes content created by friends and family over content created by Facebook Pages. What this means is that if part of your business plan is traffic from Facebook-published content, […]
Word leaked out this week that Twitter is easing its 140-character restrictions on posts. When I first heard some time ago that they were considering this move, I thought it was insane. The character count is what makes Twitter unique and … well … not Facebook. But, the report on how they’re going to do it […]
It’s no secret that podcasting, on demand audio that you can listen to on your handheld device or computer, hasn’t taken off like many thought it would 10 years ago.

Millions of fans of the podcast series Serial (including my wife) are checking their podcasting apps daily, hoping that they’ll receive a Thanksgiving present. For fans of podcasting, whether they like Serial or not, that’s a wonderful thing. The NPR-produced series, which debuted in October 2014, was a spinoff of the radio program “This American Life.” It investigated […]
I had an interesting conversation with my (nearly) 13 year old daughter in the car yesterday. Her: My kids won’t know anything about Facebook. Me (after choking at the idea of my daughter having kids): Maybe not, but why do you say that? Her: It’s going to be so old by then. It will be […]
