VidCamp – The Media 2.0 unConference

More Food for Thought

January 31st, 2006

Since I am constantly coming across new articles and podcasts that discuss media 2.0 and media convergence, I wanted to share a few recent ones that might be of interest:

Media Revolution: Podcasting Part I
In part one of a two-part article, learn about the who, what, why and how behind the newest form of media information and entertainment — podcasting.

Media Revolution: Video Podcasting Part II
In part two of this two-part article Steve Garfield and David Tames focus on video podcasting.

Captain Crunchberry Gang
Another interesting podcast discussion where Mike Arrington of TechCrunch fame joins Dan Farber, Mike Vizard, Doc Searls, and Dana Gardner for a rowdy trip down the Yellow Brick Road to OZ, where Mickey and Goofy are caught smoking dope with Steve Jobs on the iTunes back lot. Or something like that. (Warning: this description bears no actual resemblance to the show contents.)

Web threatens TV:Â report
Canadian broadcasters are among the most vulnerable to an onslaught of new technology that is changing how people watch TV, warns an IBM report titled “The End of Television as We Know It: A Future Industry Perspective”. For another report on the study, read BackStage’s article.

Digital Rights Management (DRM): Media Companies’ Next Flop?
Big media players are accustomed to watching the ratings for the most popular music, video and book content, but perhaps they should pay more attention to how consumers feel about three letters at the bottom of most charts — DRM, which stands for digital rights management.

I’ve also added these to the Resources web page. If you know of other resources that provide an interesting or different perspective, please send me an email.

Enjoy!
