Podcasting: Do It Yourself Guide
$19.99
This is a D.I.Y. guide to podcasting. Wikipedia defines podcasting as a digital media file, or a related collection of such files, which is distributed over the Internet using syndication feeds for playback on portable media players and personal computers.

This book described the do's and don'ts of podcasting and how to go about creating and keeping functional your own podcast. It tells step by step what a person needs to have to keep their podcast up to date and functionsing.

It gives you ideas of how to find a host to how to find a good topic for your podcast to be about. I believe the author's ideas on how to go about podcasting was fairly similar to Paul Gillin's ideas.


According to this book, podcasting is becoming more popular day by day. People are podcasting on more topics that one can imagine."When deciding on the type of podcast to produce ask these questions: What do I enjoy the most? What subject am I passionate about?

What topics can I speak about as an expert? What are subjects that people seek me out for? What do I do for fun? What topics do I have a lot of fun talking about (Cochran,2005,pg.72)? Buisnesses use podcasts to reach consumers about thier products.


This book was good because it is a fool proof guide to podcasting.

Samson C01U Recording/ Podcasting Pak
$129.99
The microphone works great! It got a little banged up in shipping, however... it seems that the mic stand base shifted out of it's place in the case (see picture)... it must of bounced around and hit the mic and dented it a little bit, but doesn't affect the performance of the mic. It's a solid, pro-quality microphone and very easy to hookup via the usb connection to your PC. I'm not fond of the recording software it comes with... there are better ones out there.
