PODCASTING CONSULTANTTechcrunch has confirmed that Google is in fact buying FeedBurner.
Feedburner is in the closing stages of being acquired by Google for around $100 million…The information we have is that the deal is now under a binding term sheet and will close in 2-3 weeks, and there is nothing that can really derail it at this point.
OK. Back in action. I extended my blogging break a bit more than expected. My trip to The Caribbean made me realize how much of a break I needed from certain things after working 12+ hour days consistently (I’m working on breaking this bad habit). Let’s kick things back in with a review of one of the staple pieces of podcasting gear that I’ve used from the beginning and still use: the Griffin iMic.
The Griffin iMic is, in fact, not a mic at all. Despite poor naming, it’s a great investment for any podcaster looking to improve their sound quality One of the easiest ways to cut down on hiss and other noise is to avoid plugging your mic directly into your computer’s soundcard. Instead, you need to move the digital conversion of the audio away from the electronically noisy guts of your computer… enter the Griffin iMic.
I’m late in giving this “heads up” update, but here it is now.
April was overloaded with speaking engagements and client work that took me away from blogging as much as I’d like. Now I am on a much-needed vacation in The Caribbean. I’ll be back to blogging and podcasting starting again next week. Talk to you soon.
