Lessons on podcasting

So I continue to make morning entries into my podcast blog. When I start having some quality post I’ll repost them here, but for now I’m enjoying the lessons I’m learning from it. Google’s audioblogger only allows you to talk for five minutes before it cuts off your entry. This is going to teach me to be concise and not try to talk about too many things in one entry.
I’ve learned I need to narrow my focus. I’ve been jumping from technology related topics to moral and value and political thoughts in one podcast. Some people might like that, but the majority probably only want one thing at a time.
I need to use some notes to guide my thought process. With no co-host or anything I need to talk constantly for those five minutes. It might be easy for others, but I find it’s hard to think about what to say and say it all at the same time. Notes will help prompt me on the next thought I wanted to elaborate on.
Last, I need to stop saying “um.”
