This is a real email I answered from a client – I just left out the name
Hi V!
It is like a radio talk show – usually on a very narrow topic. For example apple has a podcast about the original recordings of songs selected by American Idol Contestants I listen to – you have to love American Idol to even be interested – and thankfully (so I don’t feel like an idiot I am not alone – it is downloaded thousands of times apparently.
From what I can tell it looks like my podcast is downloaded an average of 143 times a day after not quite two months and five shows posted. To tell you the truth I can’t believe that many people are interested in this stuff! If I get listed in the Apple website as a “top 100″ most popular podcast the downloads would go up exponentially – some business podcasts are downloaded tens of thousands of times. It’s stunning.
You don’t have to have an iPod to listen, you can hear it on the website at http://webstrategiespodcast.com/ but you may personally find it a little dry.
Austin is Tom and Dyanne Walkers son, and a budding Steven Spielberg. This video was part of a school project. I just wish I had the five million bucks to purchase a cloaking device for myself !
This report aired on the NBC Nightly News on Wednesday, May 30, 2008. It discusses how ordinary dancing ha extraordinary benefits for people with Parkinson’s Disease. As some readers may already know my wife Marsha and her daughter Traci founded and personally operate the Melvin Weinstein Parkinson’s Foundation dedicated to helping victims of Parkinson’s Disease and their families.
Last weekend Marsha, her amazing 85 year-old Mom and I joined an estimated 10,000 people gathered in New York’s Central Park for the 14th annual Unity Walk. It was both wonderful and sad at the same time. We greeted friends we have known for many years, some of them have declined in health dramatically. Still they fight on, and it was truly inspiring to see people who struggle to take three steps walking three miles to show solidarity to the Parkinson’s community – and more importantly to help raise over one million dollars toward the cure. I hope you take a few minutes to visit the foundations website at www.MWPF.org
