Podcasting – I’m all for trying something new…
I am excited to be experimenting with a different way to produce content this week. Valeria Maltoni’s Conversation Agent blog post afrom Inbound Marketing Summit inspired me. The main message of the summit: it’s all about valuable content, baby! The more content the merrier particularly if you are willing to try a different way of producing that content. Enjoy and let me know how you’ve been experimenting with new content creation.

Hey – just wanted to say a big thanks for posting this. It’s an invaluable compendium of links to help others develop their own podcasts.
Since my business is podcasting and business blogging I believe that the future of customer communications lies in a combination of the two. You certainly make it sound easy to get into the game, so nicely done!
