[Athen] To Podcast or Not to Podcast?

[Prof Norm Coombs]

         TO PODCAST OR NOT TO PODCAST; THAT IS THE QUESTION!

If the indecisive Hamlet were with us, he would be in a minority of people 
uncertain about Podcasting.  Whether it is a good idea or not, everyone and 
many schools and colleges are rushing Podcasts online hoping to capitalize 
on its popularity.

EASI (Equal Access to Software and Information) is producing 2 live, 
interactive Web conferences on the topic.
July 27 at 2 PM Eastern is a free, 1-hour Web conference using voice chat 
and text chat while also pushing Web pages to support the 
presentation.  This first Web conference is for people who don't know what 
Podcasts are or why they might want to know about them.

In September, EASI will produce a fee-based series of 4 1-hour 
presentations spread over a month:
This series on podcasting will take you through the process of creating a 
podcast and publishing it to the Web. The dates for the 4 part series are:
  September 12, 19, 26 and Oct. 3, all at 12 PM Eastern Daylight Time.
It will cover topics such as how to make both Podcasts and Vodcasts 
accessible to users with disabilities.  It will discuss how to produce this 
multimedia and how to actually create a Podcast feed and how to put the 
Podcasts or Vodcasts online.
