PAB2008 – Jay Moonah
Time, Space, Media, Messages and Your Podcast presented by Jay Moonah.
Jay produces the Media Driving podcast.
Though both lived and worked in an era long before the ubiquitous computing and always-on Internet we often take for granted today, great Canadian media thinkers Harold Innis and Marshall McLuhan have a heck of lot to teach us about podcasting and new media. Their ideas on communication permanence vs. portability and tools for thinking about emerging media technologies in terms of existing ones are often more relevant now then ever. Learn why the medium is, in fact, the message.
Thank you very much to the PAB2008 partners and silver sponsors:
PAB2009 is taking place June 19-21, 2009 in Kingston, Ontario (Canada). For more information on the PAB conference, visit podcastersacrossborders.com.

This was one of my PAB2008 highlights – which says a lot considering it was (if memory serves) the first presentation on Sunday morning! :) Really interesting and thoughtful presentation. Uploading it to my iPod for the drive back to Montreal – thanks Jay! Looking forward to seeing you again at PodCamp Montreal (http://www.podcampmontreal.org)
Cheers!

This was a real rule in the old days of radio when there were relatively few women cutting records, but is clearly ridiculous now that there are so many different wonderful female artists to choose from. In the world of new media and social media where things are changing so quickly, the established rules can get equally ridiculous within months, sometimes even days. A great example of this is Facebook. Our agency 58Ninety does a lot of work with clients using Facebook, and sometimes we are asked about best practices around use of their features and ad units. Unfortunately, these things change so quickly that it is almost impossible to provide any sort of guidelines that will be relevant by the time the client gets around to their next execution. Luckily, they have a smart digital agency keeping track of these changes! [...]
