If you were to call Dolly, what’d be the first thing you’d say to her? Hello, of course.
How To Get Started Podcasting
By now, we’ve released a couple of episodes of Hello Dolly with several other episodes in the pipeline. Ultimately we’re looking to publish at least one episode per month. Once we’re in the new office, it should be easier to release more than one per month. At any rate, I thought it might be worth sharing how we record our podcasts – the software, the hardware, and the community – in hopes that it gives a look behind the scenes of the podcast, but more so that it may help you guys jump start your own podcasting efforts.
Hello Dolly Podcast Now Available Directly (Not Just iTunes)
We’ve told you a few times and we’ll keep telling you confidently – we are listening to you and your needs and many of you have requested that we create access to our Hello Dolly Podcast directly, instead of just via iTunes. Well, there’s been a lot of work around these parts and so the so-called simple things like setting up a direct feed isn’t something we can magically pull out of a hat – but, we managed to get something set up for those that want it directly: HelloDolly.fm, which should redirect to: http://feeds.feedburner.com/hello-dolly Luckily we managed to grab a simple […]
Hello Dolly: Episode 1 – The Empire Strikes Back
A couple of weeks ago, we released Episode 0 of Hello Dolly. Generally speaking, the podcast was largely an experiment not only to see if we could pull off something that was a worthwhile contribution to WordPress in the podcast-space, but to see if there was any interest from others in listening to anything we had to share. Based on the feedback of the first episode – all of which that we’re thankful for, by the way – it was evident that we should move forward. So we took everything you guys suggested and critiqued and aimed to release the official […]
Hello Dolly Showcased as New and Noteworthy
Pretty stoked to see our new Hello Dolly podcast on the New and Noteworthy section of iTunes this morning! Thanks all for driving traffic and listening to Episode 0…! It’s obviously gotten the attention of more than a few people and we can’t wait to continue our climb into awesomeness. Thanks for your help! The response has been overwhelmingly positive, which makes Tom shed tears of joy.
Hello Dolly: WP Daily's New Podcast, Episode 0
We are so excited to announce a brand new podcast affectionately called Hello Dolly. For those that have been around WordPress for a while (and ever installed a self-hosted version) then you’ll immediately get the reference that we’ve created here! It’s a true throwback and hat tip to the greatest jazz-related WordPress Plugin ever and represents a very similar mission: This is not just a [podcast], it symbolizes the hope and enthusiasm of an entire generation summed up in two words sung most famously by Louis Armstrong. Obviously we’ve exchanged the word podcast for plugin in this instance but you get […]
