Report from the Asylum 9

In her report for FIR 272 on Monday, September 3rd, ”˜Professor’ Goetsch reveals that Lee Hopkins has been spotted hanging out at the CommsCafe with Allan Jenkins decrying the poor presentation skills of most professional communicators; gives her opinion on SnapKast and its suitability for podcasters; follows up on last week’s Transcraping post with an introduction to the Plagiarism Today blog and Copyright 2.0 podcast (not to mention Public Domain Torrents); laments the fact that the Rojas-Weiner-Calacanis MP3 player never got anywhere, even though Dave Weiner still hates syncing; and agrees that the Read/Write Web article asking whether podcasting will survive is misplaced.
