  • Unconference Discussion on Podcast Directories

    +

    On Friday, Sep. 29, 2006 from 4:15-4:45 p.m. I am hosting a discussion on Podcast Directories at the Podango sponsored Unconference  which is at their booth at the 2006 Podcast and Portable Media Expo (PME).

    My position is:

    "Every podcaster needs to get their podcast into what seems like an ever increasing number directories to help them reach the right audience. These directory submissions can be complicated, time consuming,redundant, and could be used for RSS/Feed hijacking. To make matters worse, some of the most major directories are black box silos that can frustrate and annoy even the most patient person. What can be done about it?!?? Let’s discuss …".

    If anyone has any ideas they’d like to share and can’t be at the conference, then please send me direct email: sholden@pobox.com.

    If you are at the expo and want to have a discussion, come to the Podango booth at 4:15-4:45 p.m. (Friday) if it works in your schedule.

  • Pilot Review by Aviation Now for Pilatus PC-12

    September 25, 2006

    +

    +

    +

    +

    +

    +

    Aviation Now has a detailed pilot’s report by Fred George on the new Pilatus PC-12/47.  It is a great read.  Some take-a-ways:

    • Range with full tanks and 7 passengers is 1,450 nm
    • Main rival is the Raytheon King Air B200
    • Standard integrated GPS is the Honeywell KLN90B but you can upgrade to the Garmin GNS530/430
    • Sales continue to be brisk, and resale market profitable. A total 80 units sold in 2005.  Some 600 have been sold since introduction of this model.

    Here is the Pilatus PC-12 product page.
