Ford are doing a limited run - but not as few as 10 - of documentaries about how they're rubbish and need to get better. They're also doing a monthly video podcast of music videos to launch The Edge (because the world needs another SUV) which presumably won't run indefinitely. They highlight that people can subscribe in iTunes. I'm sure that there are a lot of companies doing this, with limited runs. Leesa, maybe you could dig out one or two non-corporate examples to give people a sense of the power and potential and low-cost - they might be inspired to do something beyond the usual corpdoc/advert thing and maybe Do Some Good. Lives in Focus, maybe, which will run for a set number of episodes, immediately springs to mind. Steve Garfield's Nokia Test Center blog, which is focused and limited (in that it won't go on for ever, presumably) but useful and a lasting resource. And those are just two examples from today's posts on this forum. Rupert http://www.fatgirlinohio.org/ http://feeds.feedburner.com/fatgirlinohio/

So far, I've got Justice League, Butterball Turkey and Starbucks as examples, but I need more. You'll notice that I'm using corporate examples as the conference is a corporate-y event. Can any of you suggest companies that produced 10 or less podcast episodes? Whether it was successful or not, doesn't matter. Whether it's corporate or not, doesn't matter. Right now, I just need more case studies. You can email me offlist at leesarbarnes[at]yahoo.ca.
