What Makes A Good Presentation?
Today we talk about what makes a good presentation as Dave prepares for selecting speakers for the New Media Expo.
Dave wants to know what presentations stick out in your head that you've seen?
Style can play alot into what makes a good presentation.
We need people to get to the point
You need to know your audience
Panels enable you to find out more from different point of views.
Google to find out where your audience is, and go there.
Make connections in the community FIRST.
Then introduce them to your podcast.
Make the best content you can so that when you do direct people to your website.
Look at facebook groups, google+ communities, linkedin groups
Check out meetup.com to build a local group.

You can add bass and treble in the software
They are not NEEDED in some cases, but they are very handy.
A mixer give you more options.

Jim is a fan of self hosting (Dave prefers Libsyn). He chews up 600 Gig of bandwidth
Jim needs internal RSS feed. He wants to use MIxlr for the live stuff, and spreaker for the ability to upload over.

Media Fire might be a solution
