Instructables podcast?

So I know this idea has been floating around for a while. I want to try to put this into action.However, in here I will be telling you guys what I plan to do... I know killerjackalope, =smart=, and others were doing this. This is only a proposal, in part with them...? Well, for the show. I can be one of the host. That's right, only one. Along with a few 'regulars' and the Instructables crew. Then, we'd let the viewers, and community do this,too. We'd get everyone to videotape a small portion, or segment, of the show. Then get someone, with nice video editing skills, to blend it all together. So tell me what you think?Eric said yes. We are allowed to move forward.

Everyday you can email me at mg0930mg@yahoo.com, im me at mg0930mg on aim, or reach me on skype at mikeyg0930

  • Where are the meetings held?
Skype. Download it here
  • Whens the next meeting? or meeting schedule?
On Wendsday, 6 p.m. est on skype. The one after will be on Friday, 7 p.m. est. Email me if you can't make it.
  • Will the podcast be weekly or monthly?
It will most likely be monthly,for now. Maybe, we can have our first one out near Christmas time.
  • Who minds if their face is on camera?
W'burg.
  • Who can help edit this?
No one?
  • Know anyone who wants to help?
Tell them.

Hey man sorry I missed all the stuff, only found your PM today, piled under a bunch of stuff from other members... If you would like a hand I'm happy to do so...
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 7, 2008. 7:03 PM
We can all talk about it somewhere. What's good for everyone?
killerjackalope says: Dec 7, 2008. 7:05 PM
whatever's easiest, PM works, MSN etc. Skype, which also lets you test how bits will sound...
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 9, 2008. 5:47 PM
Skype is cool,fast, and fun. Thanks!
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 7, 2008. 7:29 PM
I'm installing it now. I'm going to suggest it. It seems easier, and faster. Thanks for telling us.
Goodhart says: Dec 9, 2008. 6:15 PM
Thanks for telling us.

You sound like Smeagol talking *chuckle*
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 9, 2008. 8:10 PM

mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 7, 2008. 7:08 PM

mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 9, 2008. 5:47 PM
I'm on skype now.

Lithium Rain says: Dec 7, 2008. 5:42 PM
Okay, I can't host at the moment, but I can write. Just let me know.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 7, 2008. 7:04 PM
Ok, could you voice record stuff?
Lithium Rain says: Dec 7, 2008. 7:49 PM
Yeah, I could do that.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 8, 2008. 12:24 PM
Maybe, we can figure something out. We need to all talk on wendsday.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 7, 2008. 4:03 PM
Ok, no one came to the meeting. If you want to talk anytime, im me at mg0930mg. So, next meeting will be friday, december 12, at 7 p.m. est.
Chicken2209 says: Dec 7, 2008. 5:41 PM
sorry should have came to the chatroom to tell ppl
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 7, 2008. 7:01 PM
Yeah, I will. I'll do it tomorrow.
skunkbait says: Dec 6, 2008. 8:25 PM
Hey, I'd be glad to help in any way I can. I could definitely write or edit. I'm severely technologically impaired, so I'll have to get Mrs. Skunkbait involved.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 6, 2008. 8:34 PM
Ok, can you be at the meeting tommorow?
skunkbait says: Dec 6, 2008. 8:49 PM
I'll try. Sundays are hard on me. I work nights and have church-stuff during the day. Just make sure there's a way I can review the meeting if I don't make it.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 6, 2008. 9:20 PM
Okay. I'll figure out a way..
drinkmorecoffee says: Dec 6, 2008. 5:07 PM
I can also get some sponsors, me thinks. probabaly.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 6, 2008. 5:11 PM
Ok. We'll talk it out at the "conference" tomorrow.
Lithium Rain says: Dec 6, 2008. 6:21 PM
Hey, me too?
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 6, 2008. 8:33 PM
Yeah. There's a paragraph up above.
Lithium Rain says: Dec 6, 2008. 8:34 PM
Your link is broken...
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 6, 2008. 8:52 PM
All better.
Lithium Rain says: Dec 6, 2008. 9:05 PM
Good.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 6, 2008. 8:50 PM
Oh, god. I'll fix it.
drinkmorecoffee says: Dec 6, 2008. 6:15 PM
Allright. When/where/etc? Can I be a part of it?
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 6, 2008. 8:33 PM
It's up above.
DJ Radio says: Dec 5, 2008. 9:15 PM
I could probably be the host/announcer DJ or something like that...........
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 6, 2008. 4:58 PM
We're all hosts.
ry25920 says: Dec 6, 2008. 8:20 AM
Why don't you use some type of messenger( AIM, yahoo, xfire) and use voice chat to record it?
bumpus says: Dec 2, 2008. 7:10 PM
Ooooh! Can I help?
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 2, 2008. 7:12 PM
Sure, I was hoping a lot of instructables would want to help. :D We just need to pm eric...
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 2, 2008. 7:13 PM
We could even put it on itunes and everything, if we get the tech-savy(you?) to help. Eric could talk about new stuff squid labs, or instructables is working on. You know?
Chicken2209 says: Dec 4, 2008. 1:44 PM
id like to help but idk how....
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 1:47 PM
Any good with video editing, do you have a camera? Anything else...
Lithium Rain says: Dec 4, 2008. 2:51 PM
I can give the video editing a shot, anyhow.

Promise I can be a host if I ever get a good camera??Please?
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 3:09 PM
Yes, as soon as you get a good camera, you can. The video editing. Cool.
Lithium Rain says: Dec 5, 2008. 4:21 PM
Okay, thanks.
bumpus says: Dec 5, 2008. 7:22 PM
I haz, both, but would like some monies for film and such..
Chicken2209 says: Dec 4, 2008. 2:32 PM
im camera shy but i can do other things
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 3:09 PM
Like what W'burg's doing?
Lithium Rain says: Dec 4, 2008. 3:10 PM
Actually, I may be able to host...give me a couple days to put a clip together.
mg0930mg (author) says: Apr 28, 2009. 10:26 PM
...but oh noes people will know what you look like. ;)
Lithium Rain says: Dec 5, 2008. 4:21 PM
Eh, I'll punch anyone who makes fun of me.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 5, 2008. 4:39 PM
No one will make fun of you...
Chicken2209 says: Dec 5, 2008. 6:47 PM
for your looks
Lithium Rain says: Dec 5, 2008. 6:47 PM
I suggest Monthly at first. We can always switch to weekly later, when we get the hang of this. I may show my face. I can help with video editing if you need, but don't have much experience. Not really...
Keith-Kid says: Dec 4, 2008. 4:11 PM
Topics: Recent popular ibles, ibles in the news (Stuff that has happened involving ibles or an ible), events, contest discussion blah blah. IF you run out of stuff to talk about: featured members (talk about them blah blah), featured ibles (old ibles that have made a difference, think, the doggie wheelchair or the Barbie thing....)
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 4:14 PM
Yeah, you want to help write script, and anything else?
Keith-Kid says: Dec 5, 2008. 4:14 PM
I do. Really I do.
drinkmorecoffee says: Dec 4, 2008. 4:06 PM
I'm not sure of any of you listen to the Tech Report podcast, or the Over-clockers Forum podcast, but the host, jordan, will host some pilot episodes for free. After a few successful episodes you can get some sponsors and whatnot, and make it worth his time, but he's willing to help get this started. Let me know and I'll get him on board. I just talked to him....
drinkmorecoffee says: Dec 4, 2008. 4:12 PM
And btw, I'd LOVE to help with something like this. I don't mind my voice or face being broadcasted, either, if some people do. :-P
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 4:15 PM
Some, are camera shy, but they will help with a different part, or we will make it so they can help.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 4:11 PM
i don't know. I was thinking, low to no budget. It's not like threadbangers, or indy mogul. All of us have to talk about it...
drinkmorecoffee says: Dec 5, 2008. 2:04 PM
Yeah, low to no budget is good. So a professional podcast host doing it for free would be great. Skype conference or something to discuss it? or odds are the idea won't go anywhere fast. eh?
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 5, 2008. 8:37 PM
Skype conference, what is that? Like an instant messenger?
drinkmorecoffee says: Dec 6, 2008. 5:03 PM
Skype conference... ---> conference call, over the internet. Look up skype, it's pretty neat.
http://www.skype.com/
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 5, 2008. 2:53 PM
No, we don't want a professional doing it for free...that's the point, we all ARE the hosts...
Lithium Rain says: Dec 5, 2008. 4:20 PM
Agreed.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 5, 2008. 4:40 PM
Good... I mis-interpreted his comment.
drinkmorecoffee says: Dec 5, 2008. 6:44 PM
Fair enough. Just thought I'd throw that out there, though.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 5, 2008. 8:38 PM
Yes we really do appreciate it. Just, we want the community to be involved more.
Lithium Rain says: Dec 5, 2008. 6:46 PM
Oh, we definitely appreciate it, I just think it isn't what we're looking for. :-)
drinkmorecoffee says: Dec 5, 2008. 7:17 PM
Ah. I still want to help. :-)
Lithium Rain says: Dec 5, 2008. 8:43 PM
We need all the help we can get! Writing, shooting, editing, etc...
drinkmorecoffee says: Dec 6, 2008. 5:00 PM
I can write and edit. I can shoot too, but not as well as writing and editing.
KentsOkay says: Dec 4, 2008. 4:01 PM
Oof!! I can record some web cam'ed clips, my built in iSight cam is awesomely good... we need a staging area..
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 4:04 PM
Yeah, that will be great. We all should work on a script. Is this going to be weekly, or monthly??
Lithium Rain says: Dec 4, 2008. 10:45 AM
>_< RS, we got beat out... :(
KentsOkay says: Dec 4, 2008. 3:57 PM
Humbug!
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 12:44 PM
Yeah, but now we all can do it! You want to help,right>
Lithium Rain says: Dec 4, 2008. 2:01 PM
Most definitely!
Weissensteinburg says: Dec 4, 2008. 2:50 PM
I'm not a big fan of being in front of the camera, but Nacho thinks I have a good radio voice...I could voice over.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 3:08 PM
We can, have a 'slideshow.' of cool instructables, and you can talk about them a bit, maybe.
Kiteman says: Dec 4, 2008. 9:54 AM
Ohhh, interesting.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 10:31 AM
Would you like to help???
Kiteman says: Dec 4, 2008. 12:16 PM
I'd like to, but I'm not sure how I could.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 12:45 PM
Do you have a video camera, you can do a segment, or something.
Kiteman says: Dec 4, 2008. 1:41 PM
Hmm, maybe.
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 1:47 PM
YAY! Another regular.
Chicken2209 says: Dec 4, 2008. 1:43 PM
and heres kiteman with the weather...
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 6:23 PM
Is it windy enough to fly a kite...?
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 1:47 PM
haha...
shadowninja31 says: Jun 5, 2007. 9:49 AM
cool
mg0930mg (author) says: Dec 4, 2008. 12:45 PM
Yep.
KentsOkay says: Dec 3, 2008. 6:32 AM
Oy!! Monk and I are working on a TV show!

WAIT FOR US!!
