Book Reviews

9/24/2005 By Michael

Over the last few weeks we have received a good number of book reviews and comments both in blog and podcast form. I must say I am extremely gratified with positive nature of all the reviews I have seen. When you work this hard on a project, it is nice to know that it has been well received. I figured it was time to put up a post with links:

For Immediate Release: The Hobson and Holtz Report, The Dawn and Drew Show!, iPodderX Blog, Tech News Radio, Typical PC User Podcast, The Trend Junkie, The Rock and Roll Geek Show, Britt Malkas edb-blog, Business Thoughts, The Angel Blog

Dvorak’s About Face – Wrong Again

9/9/2005 By Michael

Everyone knew that John Dvorak was eventually going to have to do an about face on podcasting. His first podcasting piece published in October of 2004, Podcasting: Not Ready For Prime Time was the typical nay saying prevalent in the early days of podcasting. Today was the day for Dvorak to come around, Podcasting: The Next Big Thing. While I don’t know that John Dvorak’s take on podcasting is particularly important for those of us involved in it – I do appreciate that he has “joined the party”. To that I say welcome John. However, I did find this quote interesting:

An executive at Disney will be in a meeting and ask the staff how many people knew this was going on, and three geeks in the back will raise their hands. Then slowly two-thirds of the room will raise their hands. None of these people will have known that everyone already knew. It’s about then that podcasting will suddenly become the rage. It’ll be a Time magazine cover. That will be by the middle of next year. Then the money will start flying around like crazy.

I think he is wrong again, at least as far as Disney is concerned. As someone who has interviewed both Michael Eisner (CEO) and Bob Iger (President and CEO Elect) of the Walt Disney Corporation, I can tell you that executives at Disney are at the forefront of companies getting involved in podcasting. We featured Michael Eisner talking about podcasting on the Disneyland Podcast we did in early May of this year – that was long before even John Dvorak came around.

MWGblog Resurrected

8/30/2005 By Michael

MWGblog, my personal site has been resurrected. A lot has changed in the last year. I’ve written a book, started some podcasting related enterprises and agreed to speak at a number of conferences. I want to keep Reel Reviews dedicated to the podcast and films, but often felt the urge to post on unrelated topics. MWGblog will be the place I post on general topics of interest. If you want to follow along, please make sure you are subscribed to the MWGblog feed.
