Catholic Media Weekly #006
July 3rd, 2007 by Michael Kreidler
It has been a week of travel and turbulence; a week of sadness and joy. It has been a long and winding road.
Music this week is from Ambient Technology. The track ‘Telekonology’ struck me as quirky and a lot of fun. You can find the entire album ‘The All Seeing Eye Project’ at Magnatune.com.
I am not entirely sure I posted episode #5 on iTunes correctly, so please forgive me if I did not.
You will find the rest of the information from the show posted in last weeks blog entries. Let me know if you have any questions concerning them.

Learning How to Learn
June 10th, 2007 by Michael KreidlerI has been a lazy day here at the DwM ranch. The cattle are lowing and I fell asleep listening to old time radio via the Yesteryear USA Theater. It has been a long time since the house has been quiet enough that I could lay down and really relax. Ah, what a way to enjoy the Lord’s Day.
I have been thinking a lot about the ‘This Week in Media’ episode I mentioned in ‘Catholic Media Weekly’ episode #3. It is about ‘learning how to learn’. I have been spending a lot of time working on my computer this past week, trying to track down a sudden resource drain. It turns out the hardware interupts have been sucking down major resources. As a result I would get sudden spikes in CPU usage that would cause recording and music playback to sound crappy. You can hear some of it in Catholic Media Weekly #4 (crappier than normal).
I have been learning so much about podcasting in the recording of the show. Even though I die a little bit each time I release a show (they are far from perfect), the shows are a fantastic learning experience. They are invaluable. One of the big lessons is to how to go out there and ‘get it done’. It is a good feeling.
Another thing I have been learning from the computer problems is my need for a production computer. It seems I need one just to do my audio recording and postproduction upon. It would not be the one I do my “work” on the internet. It would not be where I download and try stuff out. That would be on my current computer. I don’t have the money right now, but I am seriously considering a Mac.
What do you think? If you have suggestions as to the direction I should look, let me know. I’m open to learning more.

How to Be a Star in a YouTube World
May 14th, 2007 by Michael KreidlerI remember back ‘in the day’ it seemed every new podcast got a listen by a large number of podcast listeners. I remember listening to every episode of every Catholic podcast. Of course, there were only five of them. If I remember correctly, there were between one and two thousand total podcasts back in Feb/March of 2005.
The production value of the casts was often nothing to write home about, but it was liberated content, and we were hungry for it. Now, I am working with a very good podcast and we are having trouble getting traction.
This article is a good reminder of what it takes to ‘make it’ in the modern podcast jungle. It is only going to get tougher. The article paints in rather broad strokes, but it is a good reminder of the fact that it takes a lot of elbow grease and a bit of luck go get noticed.
There are millions of people trying to get noticed on the Web, with everything from blogs to podcasts to videos. So with the huge glut of material out there, how do amateurs get attention — let alone become bona fide online stars?
How, for instance, did an Arizona woman giving grammar advice get to be one of the most popular podcasts on iTunes? And how do independent video series like “Ask a Ninja” or “LonelyGirl15″ draw hundreds of thousands of online viewers for each episode?

Oh, BTW, give Catholic Media Weekly and The Playing with Fire Podcast a listen. One is good and the other is all mine (not respectively). If you are so inclined, visit their iTunes pages and leave some feedback.
