Company Update
Things have been busy. With the organization of everything going on over at TechPodcasts.com and getting ready to really dig into “The People Choice Podcast Awards I have not had much time to even breath.
I have a stack of sites that want to become involved in our Podcast News Network fortunately we are a few months away from getting really serious about getting all of that ready to roll. So much to do and so little time.
You only need look at what is happening with Podcasting at this moment to realize that a lot is happening in the channel. When you are not rich and famous all you can do is build it one day at a time and focus on the important things like the podcasters and keep on having fun.
I am looking for a Sponsor to help out with one extra conference that we did not have in the budget. If you are interested in sponsoring Podcast Connect or Geek News Central to Gnomedex 5.0 then drop me an e-mail. I may let you in on a little secret that would sweeten the deal enough to make you want to write me a check on the spot.
