Episode 4: Online Video Wants to be President When It Grows Up

TalkShoe finally found our fourth show, Video Wants to be President When It Grows Up. Direct MP3 link/enclosure here.

Join Zadi Diaz, Steve Garfield, and Steve Woolf for Episode 4 of New Mediacracy Live, recorded live, January 18, 2007 at 8:00 PM EST/5:00 PM PST on TalkShoe.

We discussed the presidential candidate announcement videos, and a ton of other stuff.

As many of you know from our weekly gripes, TalkShoe is a technical disaster. Their client software and website is a user interface disaster, their technical support is slow to respond and less than helpful, and the audio quality has been lousy. We still think TalkShoe has potential, but it needs work. Maybe we'll revisit it in the future.

In the meantime, we will be using Skype for future podcasts. We'll post a schedule and a Skype account name that those of you who want to participate in the talkcast can use to join us. Thanks for sticking through our technical problems!

Your listener loves the show. Plenty of ideas come in my head as you talk about stuff. How do I join the next shows?

Great conversation.

Politicians, as with anyone making media, must first be authentic, something Ms. Clinton was certainly not in her recent video. The sense of tense control over the filming moment is palpable. Please, let them let it go a bit. Best advice for political vloggers: Get good "film" directors on board.

I'm liking Ron Paul for President, personally.
