[edit] Add Your Gooncast
Are you a goon podcaster? Then click the Log In/Create Account link at the to right of any page of this wiki to set up your own personal wiki page, which can be populated with any info you want. If you are a regular guest on other podcasts, give them a mention or set up another page for them.
Add your logo, tagline, info about whoever appears on the podcast, topic, category (comedy, entertainment, etc.), blog link, RSS and iTunes links, Twitter feed, Facebook fan page and more, not to mention episode listing and download links!
Optional stuff to add:
- add links for a couple of short (20-30 seconds long) promo clips so other goons can insert them into their shows easily
- some technical info about your show (like what you record on, how you set up your recording space, that sort of thing)
- add tags about recurring topics and themes of your show.
[edit] What's the Point of This Site?!
In brief, to share reviews, links, show promos and more to increase the popularity of our podcasts. Duh.
The more effort you put into your wiki page (links, file links, etc.) the better your page ranking gets, so get to it.
[edit] Search for a Gooncast
Are you a goon looking for a goon-made podcast on a particular subject? How about a gooncaster wanting to sample the work of other goons? Try the 'search' function on the left side of the page! Easy peasy.
[edit] Technical Stuff and Podcasting Tips
Someone should start up a page on setting up a podcast from scratch, setting up Wordpress, setting up Feedburner, setting up iTunes, changing from RSS to Feedburner, etc.
Also some tips on podcasting equipment would be good so they're collected in one place. It seems most of the info about good mics, etc., is scattered around on Google and not really in one good place.
