Host Heidi Estrin (<a href="http://www.jewishbooks.blogspot.com">The Book of Life Podcast</a>) talks with podcasting experts:<br /><br /><ul><li>Tony Vincent, educator from Omaha, Nebraska<br />Check out his website, <a href="http://www.learninginhand.com">Learning In Hand</a>, an educator's resource for using handheld computing in schools. From that website, you can reach his collaborative student-created <a href="http://www.learninginhand.com/OurCity/index.html">Our City Podcast</a>. The program created by his students at Willowdale Elementary, <a href="http://www.mpsomaha.org/willow/radio/listen.html">Radio WillowWeb</a>, is another fine program.<br /><br /></li><li>Christopher Harris, leader of a school library system in New York<br />Chris produces a very informative and philosophical blog, <a href="http://schoolof.info/infomancy/">Infomancy</a>, which he defines as "The field of magic related to the conjuring of information." He writes the technology column for <a href="http://www.schoollibraryjournal.com">School Library Journal</a>, and recently helped teach a <a href="http://alal2coursepodcasts.blogspot.com/2006/05/week-3-podcast-from-chris-harris-on.html">Library 2.0 course</a> at ALA.<br /><br /></li><li>Marv Kaminsky, public librarian in the midwestern USA<br />Marv hosts three podcasts: <a href="http://mrniceguy.org/">The Mr. Nice Guy Show</a>, a fun look at pop culture and news; <a href="http://jnewslight.blogspot.com/">JNewsLight</a>, the lighter side of Jewish news; and <a href="http://libvibe.blogspot.com/">LibVibe</a>, a library news podcast.</li></ul>This presentation is NOT a how-to of podcasting. Instead, it offers you ideas to think about as you consider whether you want your library to become involved in creating or accessing podcasts.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35868540-116059278679275828?l=podpresentation.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Heidi Estrinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03412775388549758908noreply@blogger.com1
