This is a good omen … there were four of us last night.  There were four at the first Orange County Podcaster’s group back in December – me, Mr. Reel Reviews, and The Podcast Brothers (before their excellent show started). 

The next OC one in January had 8 (intro to Grape Radio and May It Please The Court), and the February one had 16 or 17.  Doubling every time so far.

But back to last night in San Diego. This was a great meeting!  Let me emphasize GREAT!  It was myself, Mr. Godcast, and Mr. MacCast, and a soon to be podcaster who will remain nameless. 

We talked about:

• the state of podcasting
• the tools of podcasting
• who is and isn’t writing books (without violating any NDAs)
• how each of us are doing our podcasting (process)
• who we are listening to
• who we aren’t listening to
• are we or aren’t we going to do advertising
• where we think the future is going
• tips, tricks, and secret sauce ;-

If you are doing podcasting, or thinking of starting a podcast, you need to RUN to the nearest podcasting group; and LEARN, SHARE, and COLLABORATE.
