Hi,
I am new to the Museum Computer Network and I am looking for any advice
regarding podcasting. I work for a small natural history museum with a very
limited budget and we are looking to make podcasts of past museum lectures
available to the public on our website. I have been told by senior staff that
we do not have enough space on our website, I wonder if anyone knows how much
space a 60 minute podcast would take up. Also, what kind of technology would be
required to post a podcast on our website?
The museum has a myspace profile, and part of the reason we established it was
the possibility that the podcast could be downloaded from there. Is that really
a viable option? We do have a completely edited podcast ready to go and hope to
have it up and running by the summer. I would appreciate any suggestions or
advice, it would be very helpful to hear about others' experiences with
podcasting in museums.
Thank you in advance.
Sincerely yours,
Lauren Zalut
