EPISODE #110 - an after-Labor Day MegaCast featuring - what else???  Technology, sports, and rock-n-roll!  I talk about the implied responsibility of all communicators - mainstream and otherwise - to get the word out and encourage people to help the victims of Hurricane Kartina, weird marketing nuance over the years, truly innovative web sites, how great college football is, emerging concepts in web development, and a lot more that I honestly now forgot about as I write this post-show.  :(

Topics Discussed:

• Is there truly any discernible difference between Wrigley's spearmint and doublemint gum? 
• Please donate your time, money and hope to the American Red Cross to aide the victims of Hurricane Katrina 
• If you blog, podcast, produce a webcast, host a forum, host a wiki, etc. - you're in the media.  And, you have an inherent responsibility to get the word out and encourage your audience to help. 
• On old-style music "videos" (was Mungo Jerry's "In the Summertime" not the most insane thing you've ever heard?)
• Reactions to ESPN Radio's podcast & clip of Dave Revsine's excellent commentary on college football 
• Can MSM podcast products be lifted and played/pumped/pimped/criticized by DIY'ers?
• 12-year-old Alex the Blogging Phenom is truly the man (Alex's blog || Alex's podcast)     
• Check out Adrian Holovaty's awesome ChicagoCrime.org 
• An introduction to the concept of Web 2.0
• Presentation of Web 2.0 by the BayCHI Group (download the podcast presentation - ~82MB / ~2 hours) 
• Mainstream companies getting into podcasting - it's all about big money & marketing push
• Mashups vs. Mash-ups - huh?  
• The Podcast Brothers break down the "RSS feeds vs. web feeds" argument
