Almost halfway through the month. And, wouldn’t you know it, I got sidetracked doing the number one thing I tell all podcasters not to let themselves get caught up doing, because it keeps them from being a podcaster.
I’ve been caught up doing website stuff.
I just finished a brand new site for the
. This is a local Podcast group that I’m a part of and we have been doing some neat things that I’m trying to make sure get noticed. Not only is the site up and live, but I even built it using the same template for a podcast that I mentioned during my talk last month.
But with this, and a particularly crazy Instuctional Design project happening at work, my focus has been pulled from podcasting. While I can wear multiple hats, the number of hats that I can wear per day is starting to dwindle, especially if I’m switching between technical and creative tasks.
In fact, I’d love to tell you more about that ID project. It is for a Security Awareness course at work (most ISO certified orgs have to have this for their audits), and you’ve probably taken it. I’ve help make it suck less.
My manager came up with the idea of letting employees have the opportunity of testing out of the main learning. Pass the test, you are good to go. Don’t pass the test, continue on to the remaining hour of training. Oh, and it’s in 3 languages, and I perfectly executed it. It is some of my best work and I’m really proud of how it came out.
It’s these things that keep us from our shows. Keep us from being podcasters.
