    Podcast resurrection?

    Now a lot of the podcast chaff has fallen away, does anyone want to see the Full Circle Podcast resurrected?

    Prepared to step up and give it a go if we can put together a panel to produce some interesting (and hopefully entertaining) content.

    Any volunteers?

    If we do this...

    Next question is what kind of podcast do we make it? It needs to be a broad-based magazne format which will add some value to the FCM 'brand'. what content headings should we include? RC

    It's tricky, because the podcast format itself doesn't lend its self well to things like tutorials or visual things, so it might be an idea to maybe be more news/discussion based?

    As long as it's family friendly and interesting that's all that matters to me

    Would it be weekly?

    I think you should include the My Desktop feature...

    Hm, not so much tutorial/how-to (leave that for the magazine), although something like the 'man-minute' tips could work.

    Prefer the news/discussion format, as we can take contributions and it will add something additional to the magazine.

    Frequency - I originally thought monthly on the back of the magazine release schedule, however; if news/discussion-based, could be shorter and more frequent. Depends what kind of team we can put together to produce it! RC.

    Yeah, that's a pretty good idea, you could discuss a command for some length of time. Maybe even discuss whatever is in the Command & Conquer article? But if you wanted to discuss something else then go for it.

    It could be a 15min weekly podcast discussing the weeks news (remember, when it comes to news, I don't mind featuring non-Ubuntu news in FCM) and a command. But, of course, you can only put out the podcast when you can manage it, but it would definitely need to be regular.

    I personally prefer weekly podcasts since a month is too long to wait, I end up forgetting about it.

    Go for it...

    Frequency is dependent on a #team# committed to production. Weekly is nice idea once we get into a groove.

    BTW was going to contact Matt Rossi and discovered he and Nicola C started the PenguinCentral podcast with a couple of mates. Only Episode 1 October '09 so far. RC

    Yep, can't force people to do things. Although I do try.

    Yeah I said that to Matt when he was starting it, it's got to be regular as clockwork, otherwise people will just ignore it.

    I'll put a bit in my FCM#33 editorial directing people to here if they're interested in it and they can PM/email you about it. That OK?

    Hello everyone. It's Matt, the guy who failed miserably at putting together the FCM Podcast the last time

    I did try to get my old podcast back up with Nicola, but after one episode the rails fell off and we didn't make another podcast. I haven't spoken to Nicola since.

    I would like to sincerely congratulate you guys for bringing this project back up from the dead, and I wish you all the best of luck.
