The Power of Sharing
Hey Bill here! This is the first post you’ve seen from me here, but it will definitely not be the last. I’ll be posting some cool things that we’d like to feature on CastRoller and helping you out to learn more about the site and whats going on behind the scenes a bit. So not much more to say but, on with it!
Some of my favorite features, and the pieces that get me excited most about CastRoller, are the social aspects. Upon launch you’ll see how easy it is for you to be able to share episodes that you think your contacts should hear.
But what I want to draw you attention to right now is the ability to create a channel for an upcoming event, be it a podcasting conference or other social media type event. By setting that up and sharing that with everyone, they can get to know people and connect with them before they even get there! How cool would it be to show up and already know some people?
I’d like to feature three for you that you can add to your aggregator even before the site launches! In order of event date, as to eliminate bias (not really I’m a HUGE fan of all three!).
PodCamp Toronto 3 is coming up in February (21 + 22), I highly recommend making it out to this event. It’s the third year and it’s only going to be better then the awesomness it has been in the past! To subscribe add http://castroller.com/channels/pcto09/feed to your podcast aggregator.
Second is PodCamp London (April 25th). I do have to say I’m heavily involved with this events planning but after looking at the list of people registered and the planned session I can’t help but want to share this feed! It’s http://castroller.com/channels/pclo09/feed.
And Finally, Podcasters Across Borders (June 19-21)! An amazing conference run by two good friends of mine Bob and Mark! If you are a podcaster, do not miss this conference, and subscribe to http://castroller.com/channels/pab2009/feed to hear from the attendees.
I think you are going to love what you’ll hear as well as how social podcast consuming is going to become! Pre-Launch if you want to get a feed setup for an event you are participating in send me an email (bill@castroller.com) and we’ll help you out. Thanks so much, and if we don’t talk before launch add me (billdeys) and I’ll see you then!
