This week I return to Podcaster Training on a weekly basis except on Friday, March 6th. On that day, I will be performing in what I am calling my “acting daybew” in a musical called Alice in Wonderland.

Tonight I talked about Wetpaint’s great new release, update on the BPN Network regarding site changes, podcast updates and more.

Listen to recording on iTunes or here on the NMP Network.

This week’s segment featured some information about me getting a part in a musical, special offer for Podcaster Training listeners, upgrades to the Budde network coming up and more…

The Musical - As most people know, I tried out for a musical at my school, called “Alice in Wonderland”.  I got the part and I am a Card called “Jack”. More details will be available at a later time…

Offer – (FREE) As an offer to all of the people that listen to Podcaster Training, you will be able to get a free 300 x 300 Ad spot on my blog for 1 month starting on January 10th; All requests must be in no later than Monday, December 22nd and you must provide your 300 x 300 image and where you would like it linked. You can send those requests to podcast [at] buddes [dot] net.  Also, only the First Fifteen (15) requests will be accepted and all requests will be added by January 10th and will Stop on February 10th, unless you are currently up there or I say otherwise.

Upgrades – The Buddes Network will be moving to a new home shortly, you’ll still be able to find it at the same old place, over at Buddes.NET, including all the same blogs – JoshB, BPN Network and others… But, I believe that it’ll be a better place for the Site(s). This is an upgrade that has not yet been scheduled.

Changes with the BPN Network - It looks like most of the podcasts that I host will be being held back for at least until mid-February, due to the musical that I just recently got in. I need to keep my time open for this as much as I can, Thanks for the Patience with me on this!

An Interview & Guest Posts - Thanks to our Friend, Jeff Chandler; I was interviewed about what I am doing with blogging and podcasting, you can find that on BloggerTalks. For those that haven’t seen them yet, I have started Guest Posting over at WordPress Hacks at wphacks.com, again.

Merry Christmas – For those of you that Celebrate Christmas, “Merry Christmas” from the entire Buddes Network here at Budde Networks here in Western New York!

If you have any questions or comments for me, feel free to drop me an email at podcast [at] buddes [dot] net.

Hey All!

Just wanted to let you know, doing my first ever Scripted segment/show in podcasting went awesomely! Listen to tonight’s episode to hear about my switch to video. Stay tuned, because I will be using Scripts for now on, on Podcaster Training, plus all of my new video shows will be scripted.

I’m sure some of you are itching to get your hands on the Script I used tonight, it is on Google Docs.

Reading from a script is a very, very hard task for many. But, with the Help of Patti Serrano and my talents as a Voice Actor (also known as podcaster) I was able to get myself prepped in less than an hour yesterday.

I’d also like to Thank: Rob White and all of the Friday night, Podcaster Training talkshoers for helping me get where I am today. I don’t know where I would be today, if I would have never found TalkShoe or Podcaster Training. You all have been a great help, you have all helped many!

Happy 4th of July all! I hope you are all enjoying it – although, I am remote from Campgrounds, I still do my Segment, your probably wondering, why? Well, as any podcaster would tell you.. “Stay as consistent as possible” and I will keep consistent with my Segment, as much as possible. Now on with the Segment notes!

Future of TechCast

Segment Name Change

I’ve changed the name of the Segment to the Budde Podcasting Network Segment. Although, we’ll bring in stuff from every show, not every show every week. But, You’ll hear content from each of my shows, except for TWTHS.

Wetpaint Update

Wetpaint was down on Wednesday for a good part of the night – They added new servers to the network because they are nearing the creation of the Millionth wiki. Along with them nearing this – They have a lot of things on the White board for future releases.

Wetpaint Contest ALERT: Wetpaint is having a contest to see if you, yes you! can either create the one millionth wiki or refer the person that creates it. If you create the one millionth wiki you will be getting a Wetpaint “Going Green” package and you will be able to give an organization a “Going Green” package. Along with the Creator, the Refer will receive a “Going Green” package as well. What is this going green package you ask? Read this below to find out:

Wetpaint will offset the approximate annual emissions of the average U.S. home (25,210 lbs. of CO2), the average U.S. vehicle (8,403 lbs. of CO2), and 50,419 lbs.of CO2 of emissions of the organization of choice of the millionth site creator and referrer, if eligible, for a total value of $500 per package. Applying offsets to be provided by Terrapass.

BPN Update

As I said last week, we’re 3 weeks behind in development.. I am getting there, not ready for testing quite yet. But, we’ll say by the end of next week we should be good to start the testing on the new design and layout. Stay tuned!

Josh’s Blog Update

UPDATED: I have disabled Disqus comments so that I would be able to enable the Comment License for the Blog and any comments that were posted during the Disqus implementation have been re-added manually by Me.

I have added a new theme to my blog along with a newly designed sidebar. We’ve kept the Disqus comments and I am working on getting two new plugins called Comment License 1.2 and Pingpress 2.1.4. Those should probably be up and running by tomorrow sometime.

TalkShoe Tip of the Week

Are you hosting a TalkShoe show (Dialed in) and your listeners are complaining that they don’t have a stream on their show? This is a streaming failure that TalkShoe is still working on getting fixed ASAP! To resolve this you will need to contact someone on the TalkShoe Support Team and they can Start your stream or restart your stream. You can contact Josh on Skype or via his phone line (585.682.2594).

As you probably know by now, Formerly Tech Nation, is now not live and I am currently not creating new episodes. You will realize, if you stay subscribed, You’ll get Announcements, Segments, Tech/Web News, and more.. But, before we dig to far into those parts of the new show layout —We need to figure about what the new name of the show will be. What do you think?

Suggested names are:

• The Tech Deck (Chris Riddle)
• Lets Get Technical (TVSeriesFinaleFan)

What do you think the name should be? Although these changes are happening, this does not mean my other podcasts are going away. TWTHS, Josh’s iLife, Weekly SVU Podcast, Wetpaint Nation and the Daily RSS Podcast are NOT going to be leaving. So, let me know what you think of it and of course I’ll also pick one that I like.

As stated here, the Budde Podcasting Network should be returning mid-July, about July 14 or 15th. Check it out all on the Latest Segment blog post, here on the NMP Network.

This post should have went out last week, but due to me being busy with Finals this week. I just got to it tonight.
