Podcasts!!!

I'm cheating a little on this Thing because I'm not going to add a podcast to my GoogleReader account. I never check it and I wasn't very into it any way so adding to it seems to be a waste. The podcast I pulled up and reviewed is The Masthead with Marie Claire. I enjoy reading Marie Claire and always see mentions about The Masthead in the magazine so I thought this would be the perfect excuse to check out their podcast. I wanted to be a fashion editor for a long time and The Masthead is all about behind-the-scenes at a magazine so that's probably why I enjoyed it. Podcasts seem to be a step up from youtube videos in that you can have a website devoted solely to your podcast and what it's all about. The Masthead is pretty fancy but that's because they are constantly plugging sponsors so I'm sure it's being paid for with big bucks. It's all about Dove products! A library could have a lot of fun with podcasts and reach a lot of people meaning potential patrons. We could do informative podcasts about services we offer, interviews with librarians, authors and programs we have could be podcast,etc. I personally would love to have short reality TV casts or a library news cast called something like "News...behind the Desk". We could have our own version of The View! Ideas are formulating so I guess now I need to read the articles on how to do all this.....look out world, a star is born!
