Poliblog Perspective

When I started talking the Daily Roundup podcast, back in January I said:

I have been running a short “alpha” trial across my sites and a number of blogs of friends and colleagues who are kindly helping to test the system - these are currently highlighted at the top of the page. It seems to work reasonably well, although it has been interesting figuring out a way to collect credible statistics. I see the “alpha” trial as continuing for another week or two.

The trial has been running for around a month now, and I have done about 25 podcasts. The three key points are:

• It has taken me roughly 1 hr on a good day to prepare the roundup and podcast.
• This is too much time to spend every day for one person without making it a really major priority, but has a lot of potential.
• There is a good deal of advantage in doing both a written roundup and an audio podcast - perhaps as much as 25% on the total time.

I am doing one more podcast for tomorrow with reflections, and I will be looking for a small number of collaborators to look at continuing to produce the podcast.

If you may be interested, please drop me an email.

I’ll be writing a more detailed set of comments as my Blog Platform column tomorrow.
