Podcast NYC: NYC Podcasting Association
A report on the first meeting of the NYC Podcasting Association meetup group. The first meeting was held on Wednesday 4/22. A very interesting evening. I got to meet some folks who I've either been talking to or listening to on their podcasts. Much of the meeting involved formalities since it was the first meeting. Lots of introductions. There was a fair mix of podcast producers, technologists and marketing type folks. I give some of my thoughts on the meeting and provide some insight to what I think are good discussion topics for any podcasting meetup.
Includes a short conversation from the meeting with Mike Dunn of Nomadic Audio and John Federico of Brand Brains (and Audible). We talked a little about the current state of podcasting, soundseeing ethics and musicians getting into podcasting.
Some other notes...
I've added a Pay Pal donation button to the front page of site. A donation is certainly not required but appreciated if you regularly enjoy the content on this site. At this point I'm just looking to recover the costs of producing the site along with trying to fund new features and content.
Along those lines, check out the new Video Extras section. Powered by AudioBlog, I'll be posting short video snippets to go along with some of the audio content on the site.
Thanks for listening and happy podcasting!

good overview of the meetup rob and the next steps needed you listed were right on :)
Rob,
I enjoyed your commentary. I related with your desire to talk about some money-making aspects of podcasting.
Since I am one of the "marketing types" you mentioned, I am interested not only in the creative side of this thing, but how it can make money for those doing it, too.
I was hesitant to bring anything up becuase I know we have some "purist for the art of it" types there as well. IMO, both sides have their merits.
Anyway, I look forward to speaking with you in the future. Good podcast.

Thanks for listening...
I think that the folks who aren't interested in the commercial aspect of podcasting/rss/content syndication can certainly live in the same world with those who want to build a business model around it.
Those who do want to build a business model around it should not turn their back on the people who do it for simple pleasure, as those folks are likely to have some very good ideas.
The first rule of podcasting should be "Everyone play nice."
I look forward to further discussion as well :)
