Radio at the Edge

Posted on Friday, November 30th, 2007 at 11:01am. #

Excellent conference yesterday, apart from the chairman who was a bit flippant and got the entire audience to slap their wrists at one point, if you can believe it. ;)

Hugely enjoyable. Thank you to all concerned.

If you missed it - panic not. Thanks to the lovely people at Blue Barracuda, you’ll be able to listen to a splendid podcast of the event shortly, including interviews with all the main presenters involved.

If you can cope with the rubbish person presenting it (who sounds as if he’s not been behind a microphone since 2000), come back here later for the link and possibly even some embedded audio.

As a new comer to the fascinating world of broadcast media I have to say how refreshing the day was, I’ve been murdered by Powerpoint more times than I care to remember any preconceptions on how the day might progress were pleasantly dispelled by edgy presentations and mountains of humor, I particularly enjoyed the Olinda gag.

DAB took a few stern blows to the chin, it will be very interesting indeed to see if goes down like a sack of spuds or comes back fighting to prolong the life of digital radio in a multiplatform converged world.
