Hi Lloyd, I have been intrigued by the question you just asked about for sometime. I started an academic research project to understand the complexities of podcasting and the museum environment which will be the topic of my thesis. I have started conducting online research and a lot of other things like posting museum podcasts at my website at http://www.museumpods.com I'm not pitching the site, it is a non-profit - but if you want to explore these issues you might want to take a look or if you have any questions you would like to answered on the website - I would be glad to include them on a survey or something the offers goes to anyone interested in these topics. There are a lot of other free services offered on the site for museums to utilize. We have an e-newsletter that goes out and staff members. A variety of museums contribute articles discussing podcasting and museums. I just started a community based museum search engine (The Museum Search Engine) which really focuses on museums, podcasting and other museum related topics, so you don't have finds like you would on Google or the non-community or customized search engines. I mention this because I would like to hear any input on this... Not sure if this helps... Regards, Kurt Stuchell
