The mesh mini-podcasts are here
Anyone who attended the ridiculously successful mesh meetup on November 15th (blog post is here) at the Irish Embassy may have seen a woman with a small microphone interviewing various luminaries and other assorted folk. As some of you may know by now, that was podcaster extraordinaire Leesa Barnes, and the fruits of her labours are now available for all to enjoy.
That includes interviews with Dr. Tony Hung of Deep Jive Interests, blogger Juan Gonzalez of global-culture.org, Norman Young of The Talking Company (which is in stealth mode), new blogger Rob Schaumer and Bernie Aho of Conceptshare — and those are just the beginning. There are more to come. Thanks again to Leesa for all her hard work, and also for the compliments she bestowed on all of us in a recent post she wrote about mesh.
Podcasts were produced by Leesa’s company Caprica Interactive Marketing, with music from the Podsafe Music Network by Uncle Seth.
Here are the podcasts:
1. Juan Gonzalez of global-culture.org

Juan talks to Leesa about:
- Ways in which your online conversations can help you meet people in different countries
- Why Juan left Mexico to settle in Canada (and it wasn’t because of money)
- How to talk with your hands using your blog
2. Norman Young of The Talking Company
[audio:http://www.cubicledivas.com/podcasts/mesh/meshconference-episode002.mp3]
Norman talks to Leesa about:
- An idea Norman has for Mesh ‘07
- How to handle the misconceptions that mainstream audiences have over the word podcast (or should it be netcast?)
- Why the interactive space will never take the place of the physical space (the Mesh meetup is a perfect example)
[audio:http://www.cubicledivas.com/podcasts/mesh/meshconference-episode003.mp3]
Rob talks to Leesa about:
- His big challenge is and whether or not he can do it

Bernie talks to Leesa about:
- Why ConceptShare.com decided not to set up shop in Silicon Valley and chose Toronto instead
- How ConceptShare.com is building buzz without spending enormous sums on advertising
- How their biggest frustration sharing visual concepts over email turned into a business idea
- Web 2.0? It’s now time for Web 3.0
- Why Bernie would be part of the Mesh organizing team
- Which is colder – Sudbury or Toronto? Bernie settles the debate once and for all

[...] The Meshcasts (Rob’s term) are up on the Mesh blog. Thanks to Uncle Seth for that wonderful song called To Be An Angel that I used in both the intro and outro. I was having a devil of a time trying to find something that could capture the energy of Mesh and then I stumbled upon that song.As I perused a few blogs that made mention of the Meshcasts, I couldn’t help but notice a miscegenation of the word Mesh with other Web 2.0 terms. Meshcast is just one, so let’s have fun with this. [...]
[...] As part of their recent launch of the Mesh 2007, the organizers produced a series of mini-podcast, featuring people from the community. I had the opportunity to talk about this project and my experience as a blogger, migrant and passionate writer. Hear it in my own words: [...]
[...] I’m pretty excited. I was at a MESH meet and was interviewed by the increalibly awesome Leesa Barnes, and my interview is now on the MESH website. It’s a little hard to hear because we were in a crowded pub, but I am thrilled nonetheless. Check it out http://www.meshconference.com/blog/2006/11/23/the-mesh-mini-podcasts-are-here/ [...]
[...] I spent the morning at PodCamp Toronto today. It’s fair to say that there is huge interest in this city in pod and videocasting. The event was obviously enormously successful – big props to the organizers, Leesa Barnes of Podonomics (who has helped us with meshcasts), Jay Moonah of Uncle Seth and Online Music Marketing, Brent Morris of The Closet Geek Show, Julien of the In Over Your Head hip hop podcast, and Mitch Joel of Twist Image. There’s a social tonight, and a day 2 tomorrow. Some photos here. Related Posts [...]
[...] Last night, I participated in a Canadian Public Relations Society panel, and it struck me that the high-tech sector is in the midst of a event renaissance. Whether it’s conferences, meet-ups, workshops, DemoCamps, BarCamps, panels, breakfast meetings or just drinks, there’s so much going on the time. In Toronto, for example, there’s three major conferences: ICE 07, mesh and WOM happening within the next three months. Then you’ve got the New Media Awards in late-May, StartUpCamp in June, and a bunch of other events in between. [...]
