We are working with Amplify on the 2025 State of AI Engineering Survey to be presented at the AIE World's Fair in SF! Join the survey to shape the future of AI Eng!We first met Snipd over a year ago, and were immediately impressed by the design, but were doubtful about the behavior of snipping as the title behavior:Podcast apps are enormously sticky - Spotify spent almost $1b in podcast acquisitions and exclusive content just to get an 8% bump in market share among normies.However, after a disappointing Overcast 2.0 rewrite with no AI features in the last 3 years, I finally bit the bullet and switched to Snipd. It's 2025, your podcast app should be able to let you search transcripts of your podcasts. Snipd is the best implementation of this so far.And yet they keep shipping:What impressed us wasn't just how this tiny team of 4 was able to bootstrap a consumer AI app against massive titans and do so well; but also how seriously they think about learning through podcasts and improving retention of knowledge over time, aka “Duolingo for podcasts”. As an educational AI podcast, that's a mission we can get behind.Full Video PodFind us on YouTube!

Welcome.Kevin [00:00:07]: Hi. Hi. Amazing to be here.swyx [00:00:09]: Yeah. This is our first ever, I think, outdoors podcast recording.Kevin [00:00:14]: It's quite a location for the first time, I have to say.swyx [00:00:18]: I was actually unsure because, you know, it's cold. It's like, I checked the temperature. It's like kind of one degree Celsius, but it's not that bad with the sun. No, it's quite nice. Yeah. Especially with our beautiful tea. With the tea. Yeah. Perfect. We're going to talk about Snips. I'm a Snips user. I'm a Snips user. I had to basically, you know, apart from Twitter, it's like the number one use app on my phone. Nice. When I wake up in the morning, I open Snips and I, you know, see what's new. And I think in terms of time spent or usage on my phone, I think it's number one or number two. Nice. Nice. So I really had to talk about it also because I think people interested in AI want to think about like, how can we, we're an AI podcast, we have to talk about the AI podcast app. But before we get there, we just finished. We just finished the AI Engineer Summit and you came for the two days. How was it?Kevin [00:01:07]: It was quite incredible. I mean, for me, the most valuable was just being in the same room with like-minded people who are building the future and who are seeing the future. You know, especially when it comes to AI agents, it's so often I have conversations with friends who are not in the AI world. And it's like so quickly it happens that you, it sounds like you're talking in science fiction. And it's just crazy talk. It was, you know, it's so refreshing to talk with so many other people who already see these things and yeah, be inspired then by them and not always feel like, like, okay, I think I'm just crazy. And like, this will never happen. It really is happening. And for me, it was very valuable. So day two, more relevant, more relevant for you than day one. Yeah. Day two. So day two was the engineering track. Yeah. That was definitely the most valuable for me. Like also as a producer. Practitioner myself, especially there were one or two talks that had to do with voice AI and AI agents with voice. Okay. So that was quite fascinating. Also spoke with the speakers afterwards. Yeah. And yeah, they were also very open and, and, you know, this, this sharing attitudes that's, I think in general, quite prevalent in the AI community. I also learned a lot, like really practical things that I can now take away with me. Yeah.swyx [00:02:25]: I mean, on my side, I, I think I watched only like half of the talks. Cause I was running around and I think people saw me like towards the end, I was kind of collapsing. I was on the floor, like, uh, towards the end because I, I needed to get, to get a rest, but yeah, I'm excited to watch the voice AI talks myself.Kevin [00:02:43]: Yeah. Yeah. Do that. And I mean, from my side, thanks a lot for organizing this conference for bringing everyone together. Do you have anything like this in Switzerland? The short answer is no. Um, I mean, I have to say the AI community in, especially Zurich, where. Yeah. Where we're, where we're based. Yeah. It is quite good. And it's growing, uh, especially driven by ETH, the, the technical university there and all of the big companies, they have AI teams there. Google, like Google has the biggest tech hub outside of the U S in Zurich. Yeah. Facebook is doing a lot in reality labs. Uh, Apple has a secret AI team, open AI and then SwapBit just announced that they're coming to Zurich. Yeah. Um, so there's a lot happening. Yeah.swyx [00:03:23]: So, yeah, uh, I think the most recent notable move, I think the entire vision team from Google. Uh, Lucas buyer, um, and, and all the other authors of Siglip left Google to join open AI, which I thought was like, it's like a big move for a whole team to move all at once at the same time. So I've been to Zurich and it just feels expensive. Like it's a great city. Yeah. It's great university, but I don't see it as like a business hub. Is it a business hub? I guess it is. Right.Kevin [00:03:51]: Like it's kind of, well, historically it's, uh, it's a finance hub, finance hub. Yeah. I mean, there are some, some large banks there, right? Especially UBS, uh, the, the largest wealth manager in the world, but it's really becoming more of a tech hub now with all of the big, uh, tech companies there.swyx [00:04:08]: I guess. Yeah. Yeah. And, but we, and research wise, it's all ETH. Yeah. There's some other things. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.Kevin [00:04:13]: It's all driven by ETH. And then, uh, it's sister university EPFL, which is in Lausanne. Okay. Um, which they're also doing a lot, but, uh, it's, it's, it's really ETH. Uh, and otherwise, no, I mean, it's a beautiful, really beautiful city. I can recommend. To anyone. To come, uh, visit Zurich, uh, uh, let me know, happy to show you around and of course, you know, you, you have the nature so close, you have the mountains so close, you have so, so beautiful lakes. Yeah. Um, I think that's what makes it such a livable city. Yeah.swyx [00:04:42]: Um, and the cost is not, it's not cheap, but I mean, we're in New York city right now and, uh, I don't know, I paid $8 for a coffee this morning, so, uh, the coffee is cheaper in Zurich than the New York city. Okay. Okay. Let's talk about Snipt. What is Snipt and, you know, then we'll talk about your origin story, but I just, let's, let's get a crisp, what is Snipt? Yeah.Kevin [00:05:03]: I always see two definitions of Snipt, so I'll give you one really simple, straightforward one, and then a second more nuanced, um, which I think will be valuable for the rest of our conversation. So the most simple one is just to say, look, we're an AI powered podcast app. So if you listen to podcasts, we're now providing this AI enhanced experience. But if you look at the more nuanced, uh, podcast. Uh, perspective, it's actually, we, we've have a very big focus on people who like your audience who listened to podcasts to learn something new. Like your audience, you want, they want to learn about AI, what's happening, what's, what's, what's the latest research, what's going on. And we want to provide a, a spoken audio platform where you can do that most effectively. And AI is basically the way that we can achieve that. Yeah.swyx [00:05:53]: Means to an end. Yeah, exactly. When you started. Was it always meant to be AI or is it, was it more about the social sharing?Kevin [00:05:59]: So the first version that we ever released was like three and a half years ago. Okay. Yeah. So this was before ChatGPT. Before Whisper. Yeah. Before Whisper. Yeah. So I think a lot of the features that we now have in the app, they weren't really possible yet back then. But we already from the beginning, we always had the focus on knowledge. That's the reason why, you know, we in our team, why we listen to podcasts, but we did have a bit of a different approach. Like the idea in the very beginning was, so the name is Snips and you can create these, what we call Snips, which is basically a small snippet, like a clip from a, from a podcast. And we did envision sort of like a, like a social TikTok platform where some people would listen to full episodes and they would snip certain, like the best parts of it. And they would post that in a feed and other users would consume this feed of Snips. And use that as a discovery tool or just as a means to an end. And yeah, so you would have both people who create Snips and people who listen to Snips. So our big hypothesis in the beginning was, you know, it will be easy to get people to listen to these Snips, but super difficult to actually get them to create them. So we focused a lot of, a lot of our effort on making it as seamless and easy as possible to create a Snip. Yeah.swyx [00:07:17]: It's similar to TikTok. You need CapCut for there to be videos on TikTok. Exactly.Kevin [00:07:23]: And so for, for Snips, basically whenever you hear an amazing insight, a great moment, you can just triple tap your headphones. And our AI actually then saves the moment that you just listened to and summarizes it to create a note. And this is then basically a Snip. So yeah, we built, we built all of this, launched it. And what we found out was basically the exact opposite. So we saw that people use the Snips to discover podcasts, but they really, you know, they don't. You know, really love listening to long form podcasts, but they were creating Snips like crazy. And this was, this was definitely one of these aha moments when we realized like, hey, we should be really doubling down on the knowledge of learning of, yeah, helping you learn most effectively and helping you capture the knowledge that you listen to and actually do something with it. Because this is in general, you know, we, we live in this world where there's so much content and we consume and consume and consume. And it's so easy to just at the end of the podcast. You just start listening to the next podcast. And five minutes later, you've forgotten everything. 90%, 99% of what you've actually just learned. Yeah.swyx [00:08:31]: You don't know this, but, and most people don't know this, but this is my fourth podcast. My third podcast was a personal mixtape podcast where I Snipped manually sections of podcasts that I liked and added my own commentary on top of them and published them as small episodes. Nice. So those would be maybe five to 10 minute Snips. Yeah. And then I added something that I thought was a good story or like a good insight. And then I added my own commentary and published it as a separate podcast. It's cool. Is that still live? It's still live, but it's not active, but you can go back and find it. If you're, if, if you're curious enough, you'll see it. Nice. Yeah. You have to show me later. It was so manual because basically what my process would be, I hear something interesting. I note down the timestamp and I note down the URL of the podcast. I used to use Overcast. So it would just link to the Overcast page. And then. Put in my note taking app, go home. Whenever I feel like publishing, I will take one of those things and then download the MP3, clip out the MP3 and record my intro, outro and then publish it as a, as a podcast. But now Snips, I mean, I can just kind of double click or triple tap.Kevin [00:09:39]: I mean, those are very similar stories to what we hear from our users. You know, it's, it's normal that you're doing, you're doing something else while you're listening to a podcast. Yeah. A lot of our users, they're driving, they're working out, walking their dog. So in those moments when you hear something amazing, it's difficult to just write them down or, you know, you have to take out your phone. Some people take a screenshot, write down a timestamp, and then later on you have to go back and try to find it again. Of course you can't find it anymore because there's no search. There's no command F. And, um, these, these were all of the issues that, that, that we encountered also ourselves as users. And given that our background was in AI, we realized like, wait, hey, this is. This should not be the case. Like podcast apps today, they're still, they're basically repurposed music players, but we actually look at podcasts as one of the largest sources of knowledge in the world. And once you have that different angle of looking at it together with everything that AI is now enabling, you realize like, hey, this is not the way that we, that podcast apps should be. Yeah.swyx [00:10:41]: Yeah. I agree. You mentioned something that you said your background is in AI. Well, first of all, who's the team and what do you mean your background is in AI?Kevin [00:10:48]: Those are two very different things. I'm going to ask some questions. Yeah. Um, maybe starting with, with my backstory. Yeah. My backstory actually goes back, like, let's say 12 years ago or something like that. I moved to Zurich to study at ETH and actually I studied something completely different. I studied mathematics and economics basically with this specialization for quant finance. Same. Okay. Wow. All right. So yeah. And then as you know, all of these mathematical models for, um, asset pricing, derivative pricing, quantitative trading. And for me, the thing that, that fascinates me the most was the mathematical modeling behind it. Uh, mathematics, uh, statistics, but I was never really that passionate about the finance side of things.swyx [00:11:32]: Oh really? Oh, okay. Yeah. I mean, we're different there.Kevin [00:11:36]: I mean, one just, let's say symptom that I noticed now, like, like looking back during that time. Yeah. I think I never read an academic paper about the subject in my free time. And then it was towards the end of my studies. I was already working for a big bank. One of my best friends, he comes to me and says, Hey, I just took this course. You have to, you have to do this. You have to take this lecture. Okay. And I'm like, what, what, what is it about? It's called machine learning and I'm like, what, what, what kind of stupid name is that? Uh, so you sent me the slides and like over a weekend I went through all of the slides and I just, I just knew like freaking hell. Like this is it. I'm, I'm in love. Wow. Yeah. Okay. And that was then over the course of the next, I think like 12 months, I just really got into it. Started reading all about it, like reading blog posts, starting building my own models.swyx [00:12:26]: Was this course by a famous person, famous university? Was it like the Andrew Wayne Coursera thing? No.Kevin [00:12:31]: So this was a ETH course. So a professor at ETH. Did he teach in English by the way? Yeah. Okay.swyx [00:12:37]: So these slides are somewhere available. Yeah. Definitely. I mean, now they're quite outdated. Yeah. Sure. Well, I think, you know, reflecting on the finance thing for a bit. So I, I was, used to be a trader, uh, sell side and buy side. I was options trader first and then I was more like a quantitative hedge fund analyst. We never really use machine learning. It was more like a little bit of statistical modeling, but really like you, you fit, you know, your regression.Kevin [00:13:03]: No, I mean, that's, that's what it is. And, uh, or you, you solve partial differential equations and have then numerical methods to, to, to solve these. That's, that's for you. That's your degree. And that's, that's not really what you do at work. Right. Unless, well, I don't know what you do at work. In my job. No, no, we weren't solving the partial differential. Yeah.swyx [00:13:18]: You learn all this in school and then you don't use it.Kevin [00:13:20]: I mean, we, we, well, let's put it like that. Um, in some things, yeah, I mean, I did code algorithms that would do it, but it was basically like, it was the most basic algorithms and then you just like slightly improve them a little bit. Like you just tweak them here and there. Yeah. It wasn't like starting from scratch, like, Oh, here's this new partial differential equation. How do we know?swyx [00:13:43]: Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's, that's real life, right? Most, most of it's kind of boring or you're, you're using established things because they're established because, uh, they tackle the most important topics. Um, yeah. Portfolio management was more interesting for me. Um, and, uh, we, we were sort of the first to combine like social data with, with quantitative trading. And I think, uh, I think now it's very common, but, um, yeah. Anyway, then you, you went, you went deep on machine learning and then what? You quit your job? Yeah. Yeah. Wow.Kevin [00:14:12]: I quit my job because, uh, um, I mean, I started using it at the bank as well. Like try, like, you know, I like desperately tried to find any kind of excuse to like use it here or there, but it just was clear to me, like, no, if I want to do this, um, like I just have to like make a real cut. So I quit my job and joined an early stage, uh, tech startup in Zurich where then built up the AI team over five years. Wow. Yeah. So yeah, we built various machine learning, uh, things for, for banks from like models for, for sales teams to identify which clients like which product to sell to them and with what reasons all the way to, we did a lot, a lot with bank transactions. One of the actually most fun projects for me was we had an, an NLP model that would take the booking text of a transaction, like a credit card transaction and pretty fired. Yeah. Because it had all of these, you know, like numbers in there and abbreviations and whatnot. And sometimes you look at it like, what, what is this? And it was just, you know, it would just change it to, I don't know, CVS. Yeah.swyx [00:15:15]: Yeah. But I mean, would you have hallucinations?Kevin [00:15:17]: No, no, no. The way that everything was set up, it wasn't like, it wasn't yet fully end to end generative, uh, neural network as what you would use today. Okay.swyx [00:15:30]: Awesome. And then when did you go like full time on Snips? Yeah.Kevin [00:15:33]: So basically that was, that was afterwards. I mean, how that started was the friend of mine who got me into machine learning, uh, him and I, uh, like he also got me interested into startups. He's had a big impact on my life. And the two of us were just a jam on, on like ideas for startups every now and then. And his background was also in AI data science. And we had a couple of ideas, but given that we were working full times, we were thinking about, uh, so we participated in Hack Zurich. That's, uh, Europe's biggest hackathon, um, or at least was at the time. And we said, Hey, this is just a weekend. Let's just try out an idea, like hack something together and see how it works. And the idea was that we'd be able to search through podcast episodes, like within a podcast. Yeah. So we did that. Long story short, uh, we managed to do it like to build something that we realized, Hey, this actually works. You can, you can find things again in podcasts. We had like a natural language search and we pitched it on stage. And we actually won the hackathon, which was cool. I mean, we, we also, I think we had a good, um, like a good, good pitch or a good example. So we, we used the famous Joe Rogan episode with Elon Musk where Elon Musk smokes a joint. Okay. Um, it's like a two and a half hour episode. So we were on stage and then we just searched for like smoking weed and it would find that exact moment. It will play it. And it just like, come on with Elon Musk, just like smoking. Oh, so it was video as well? No, it was actually completely based on audio. But we did have the video for the presentation. Yeah. Which had a, had of course an amazing effect. Yeah. Like this gave us a lot of activation energy, but it wasn't actually about winning the hackathon. Yeah. But the interesting thing that happened was after we pitched on stage, several of the other participants, like a lot of them came up to us and started saying like, Hey, can I use this? Like I have this issue. And like some also came up and told us about other problems that they have, like very adjacent to this with a podcast. Where's like, like this. Like, could, could I use this for that as well? And that was basically the, the moment where I realized, Hey, it's actually not just us who are having these issues with, with podcasts and getting to the, making the most out of this knowledge. Yeah. The other people. Yeah. That was now, I guess like four years ago or something like that. And then, yeah, we decided to quit our jobs and start, start this whole snip thing. Yeah. How big is the team now? We're just four people. Yeah. Just four people. Yeah. Like four. We're all technical. Yeah. Basically two on the, the backend side. So one of my co-founders is this person who got me into machine learning and startups. And we won the hackathon together. So we have two people for the backend side with the AI and all of the other backend things. And two for the front end side, building the app.swyx [00:18:18]: Which is mostly Android and iOS. Yeah.Kevin [00:18:21]: It's iOS and Android. We also have a watch app for, for Apple, but yeah, it's mostly iOS. Yeah.swyx [00:18:27]: The watch thing, it was very funny because in the, in the Latent Space discord, you know, most of us have been slowly adopting snips. You came to me like a year ago and you introduced snip to me. I was like, I don't know. I'm, you know, I'm very sticky to overcast and then slowly we switch. Why watch?Kevin [00:18:43]: So it goes back to a lot of our users, they do something else while, while listening to a podcast, right? Yeah. And one of the, us giving them the ability to then capture this knowledge, even though they're doing something else at the same time is one of the killer features. Yeah. Maybe I can actually, maybe at some point I should maybe give a bit more of an overview of what the, all of the features that we have. Sure. So this is one of the killer features and for one big use case that people use this for is for running. Yeah. So if you're a big runner, a big jogger or cycling, like really, really cycling competitively and a lot of the people, they don't want to take their phone with them when they go running. So you load everything onto the watch. So you can download episodes. I mean, if you, if you have an Apple watch that has internet access, like with a SIM card, you can also directly stream. That's also possible. Yeah. So of course it's a, it's basically very limited to just listening and snipping. And then you can see all of your snips later on your phone. Let me tell you this error I just got.swyx [00:19:47]: Error playing episode. Substack, the host of this podcast, does not allow this podcast to be played on an Apple watch. Yeah.Kevin [00:19:52]: That's a very beautiful thing. So we found out that all of the podcasts hosted on Substack, you cannot play them on an Apple watch. Why is this restriction? What? Like, don't ask me. We try to reach out to Substack. We try to reach out to some of the bigger podcasters who are hosting the podcast on Substack to also let them know. Substack doesn't seem to care. This is not specific to our app. You can also check out the Apple podcast app. Yeah. It's the same problem. It's just that we actually have identified it. And we tell the user what's going on.swyx [00:20:25]: I would say we host our podcast on Substack, but they're not very serious about their podcasting tools. I've told them before, I've been very upfront with them. So I don't feel like I'm shitting on them in any way. And it's kind of sad because otherwise it's a perfect creative platform. But the way that they treat podcasting as an afterthought, I think it's really disappointing.Kevin [00:20:45]: Maybe given that you mentioned all these features, maybe I can give a bit of a better overview of the features that we have. Let's do that. Let's do that. So I think we're mostly in our minds. Maybe for some of the listeners.swyx [00:20:55]: I mean, I'll tell you my version. Yeah. They can correct me, right? So first of all, I think the main job is for it to be a podcast listening app. It should be basically a complete superset of what you normally get on Overcast or Apple Podcasts or anything like that. You pull your show list from ListenNotes. How do you find shows? You've got to type in anything and you find them, right?Kevin [00:21:18]: Yeah. We have a search engine that is powered by ListenNotes. Yeah. But I mean, in the meantime, we have a huge database of like 99% of all podcasts out there ourselves. Yeah.swyx [00:21:27]: What I noticed, the default experience is you do not auto-download shows. And that's one very big difference for you guys versus other apps, where like, you know, if I'm subscribed to a thing, it auto-downloads and I already have the MP3 downloaded overnight. For me, I have to actively put it onto my queue, then it auto-downloads. And actually, I initially didn't like that. I think I maybe told you that I was like, oh, it's like a feature that I don't like. Like, because it means that I have to choose to listen to it in order to download and not to... It's like opt-in. There's a difference between opt-in and opt-out. So I opt-in to every episode that I listen to. And then, like, you know, you open it and depends on whether or not you have the AI stuff enabled. But the default experience is no AI stuff enabled. You can listen to it. You can see the snips, the number of snips and where people snip during the episode, which roughly correlates to interest level. And obviously, you can snip there. I think that's the default experience. I think snipping is really cool. Like, I use it to share a lot on Discord. I think we have tons and tons of just people sharing snips and stuff. Tweeting stuff is also like a nice, pleasant experience. But like the real features come when you actually turn on the AI stuff. And so the reason I got snipped, because I got fed up with Overcast not implementing any AI features at all. Instead, they spent two years rewriting their app to be a little bit faster. And I'm like, like, it's 2025. I should have a podcast that has transcripts that I can search. Very, very basic thing. Overcast will basically never have it.Kevin [00:22:49]: Yeah, I think that was a good, like, basic overview. Maybe I can add a bit to it with the AI features that we have. So one thing that we do every time a new podcast comes out, we transcribe the episode. We do speaker diarization. We identify the speaker names. Each guest, we extract a mini bio of the guest, try to find a picture of the guest online, add it. We break the podcast down into chapters, as in AI generated chapters. That one. That one's very handy. With a quick description per title and quick description per each chapter. We identify all books that get mentioned on a podcast. You can tell I don't use that one. It depends on the podcast. There are some podcasts where the guests often recommend like an amazing book. So later on, you can you can find that again.swyx [00:23:42]: So you literally search for the word book or I just read blah, blah, blah.Kevin [00:23:46]: No, I mean, it's all LLM based. Yeah. So basically, we have we have an LLM that goes through the entire transcript and identifies if a user mentions a book, then we use perplexity API together with various other LLM orchestration to go out there on the Internet, find everything that there is to know about the book, find the cover, find who or what the author is, get a quick description of it for the author. We then check on which other episodes the author appeared on.swyx [00:24:15]: Yeah, that is killer.Kevin [00:24:17]: Because that for me, if. If there's an interesting book, the first thing I do is I actually listen to a podcast episode with a with a writer because he usually gives a really great overview already on a podcast.swyx [00:24:28]: Sometimes the podcast is with the person as a guest. Sometimes his podcast is about the person without him there. Do you pick up both?Kevin [00:24:37]: So, yes, we pick up both in like our latest models. But actually what we show you in the app, the goal is to currently only show you the guest to separate that. In the future, we want to show the other things more.swyx [00:24:47]: For what it's worth, I don't mind. Yeah, I don't think like if I like if I like somebody, I'll just learn about them regardless of whether they're there or not.Kevin [00:24:55]: Yeah, I mean, yes and no. We we we have seen there are some personalities where this can break down. So, for example, the first version that we released with this feature, it picked up much more often a person, even if it was not a guest. Yeah. For example, the best examples for me is Sam Altman and Elon Musk. Like they're just mentioned on every second podcast and it has like they're not on there. And if you're interested in it, you can go to Elon Musk. And actually like learning from them. Yeah, I see. And yeah, we updated our our algorithms, improved that a lot. And now it's gotten much better to only pick it up if they're a guest. And yeah, so this this is maybe to come back to the features, two more important features like we have the ability to chat with an episode. Yes. Of course, you can do the old style of searching through a transcript with a keyword search. But I think for me, this is this is how you used to do search and extracting knowledge in the in the past. Old school. And the A.I. Web. Way is is basically an LLM. So you can ask the LLM, hey, when do they talk about topic X? If you're interested in only a certain part of the episode, you can ask them for four to give a quick overview of the episode. Key takeaways afterwards also to create a note for you. So this is really like very open, open ended. And yeah. And then finally, the snipping feature that we mentioned just to reiterate. Yeah. I mean, here the the feature is that whenever you hear an amazing idea, you can trip. It's up your headphones or click a button in the app and the A.I. summarizes the insight you just heard and saves that together with the original transcript and audio in your knowledge library. I also noticed that you you skip dynamic content. So dynamic content, we do not skip it automatically. Oh, sorry. You detect. But we detect it. Yeah. I mean, that's one of the thing that most people don't don't actually know that like the way that ads get inserted into podcasts or into most podcasts is actually that every time you listen. To a podcast, you actually get access to a different audio file and on the server, a different ad is inserted into the MP3 file automatically. Yeah. Based on IP. Exactly. And that's what that means is if we transcribe an episode and have a transcript with timestamps like words, word specific timestamps, if you suddenly get a different audio file, like the whole time says I messed up and that's like a huge issue. And for that, we actually had to build another algorithm that would dynamically on the floor. I re sync the audio that you're listening to the transcript that we have. Yeah. Which is a fascinating problem in and of itself.swyx [00:27:24]: You sync by matching up the sound waves? Or like, or do you sync by matching up words like you basically do partial transcription?Kevin [00:27:33]: We are not matching up words. It's happening on the basically a bytes level matching. Yeah. Okay.swyx [00:27:40]: It relies on this. It relies on the exact match at some point.Kevin [00:27:46]: So it's actually. We're actually not doing exact matches, but we're doing fuzzy matches to identify the moment. It's basically, we basically built Shazam for podcasts. Just as a little side project to solve this issue.swyx [00:28:02]: Actually, fun fact, apparently the Shazam algorithm is open. They published the paper, it's talked about it. I haven't really dived into the paper. I thought it was kind of interesting that basically no one else has built Shazam.Kevin [00:28:16]: Yeah, I mean, well, the one thing is the algorithm. If you now talk about Shazam, the other thing is also having the database behind it and having the user mindset that if they have this problem, they come to you, right?swyx [00:28:29]: Yeah, I'm very interested in the tech stack. There's a big data pipeline. Could you share what is the tech stack?Kevin [00:28:35]: What are the most interesting or challenging pieces of it? So the general tech stack is our entire backend is, or 90% of our backend is written in Python. Okay. Hosting everything on Google Cloud Platform. And our front end is written with, well, we're using the Flutter framework. So it's written in Dart and then compiled natively. So we have one code base that handles both Android and iOS. You think that was a good decision? It's something that a lot of people are exploring. So up until now, yes. Okay. Look, it has its pros and cons. Some of the, you know, for example, earlier, I mentioned we have a Apple Watch app. Yeah. I mean, there's no Flutter for that, right? So that you build native. And then of course you have to sort of like sync these things together. I mean, I'm not the front end engineer, so I'm not just relaying this information, but our front end engineers are very happy with it. It's enabled us to be quite fast and be on both platforms from the very beginning. And when I talk with people and they hear that we are using Flutter, usually they think like, ah, it's not performant. It's super junk, janky and everything. And then they use it. They use our app and they're always super surprised. Or if they've already used our app, I couldn't tell them. They're like, what? Yeah. Um, so there is actually a lot that you can do with it.swyx [00:29:51]: The danger, the concern, there's a few concerns, right? One, it's Google. So when were they, when are they going to abandon it? Two, you know, they're optimized for Android first. So iOS is like a second, second thought, or like you can feel that it is not a native iOS app. Uh, but you guys put a lot of care into it. And then maybe three, from my point of view, JavaScript, as a JavaScript guy, React Native was supposed to be there. And I think that it hasn't really fulfilled that dream. Um, maybe Expo is trying to do that, but, um, again, it is not, does not feel as productive as Flutter. And I've, I spent a week on Flutter and dot, and I'm an investor in Flutter flow, which is the local, uh, Flutter, Flutter startup. That's doing very, very well. I think a lot of people are still Flutter skeptics. Yeah. Wait. So are you moving away from Flutter?Kevin [00:30:41]: I don't know. We don't have plans to do that. Yeah.swyx [00:30:43]: You're just saying about that. What? Yeah. Watch out. Okay. Let's go back to the stack.Kevin [00:30:47]: You know, that was just to give you a bit of an overview. I think the more interesting things are, of course, on the AI side. So we, like, as I mentioned earlier, when we started out, it was before chat GPT for the chat GPT moment before there was the GPT 3.5 turbo, uh, API. So in the beginning, we actually were running everything ourselves, open source models, try to fine tune them. They worked. There was us, but let's, let's be honest. They weren't. What was the sort of? Before Whisper, the transcription. Yeah, we were using wave to work like, um, there was a Google one, right? No, it was a Facebook, Facebook one. That was actually one of the papers. Like when that came out for me, that was one of the reasons why I said we, we should try something to start a startup in the audio space. For me, it was a bit like before that I had been following the NLP space, uh, quite closely. And as, as I mentioned earlier, we, we did some stuff at the startup as well, that I was working up. But before, and wave to work was the first paper that I had at least seen where the whole transformer architecture moved over to audio and bit more general way of saying it is like, it was the first time that I saw the transformer architecture being applied to continuous data instead of discrete tokens. Okay. And it worked amazingly. Ah, and like the transformer architecture plus self-supervised learning, like these two things moved over. And then for me, it was like, Hey, this is now going to take off similarly. It's the text space has taken off. And with these two things in place, even if some features that we want to build are not possible yet, they will be possible in the near term, uh, with this, uh, trajectory. So that was a little side, side note. No, it's in the meantime. Yeah. We're using whisper. We're still hosting some of the models ourselves. So for example, the whole transcription speaker diarization pipeline, uh,swyx [00:32:38]: You need it to be as cheap as possible.Kevin [00:32:40]: Yeah, exactly. I mean, we're doing this at scale where we have a lot of audio.swyx [00:32:44]: We're what numbers can you disclose? Like what, what are just to give people an idea because it's a lot. So we have more than a million podcasts that we've already processed when you say a million. So processing is basically, you have some kind of list of podcasts that you will auto process and others where a paying pay member can choose to press the button and transcribe it. Right. Is that the rough idea? Yeah, exactly.Kevin [00:33:08]: Yeah. And if, when you press that button or we also transcribe it. Yeah. So first we do the, we do the transcription. We do the. The, the speaker diarization. So basically you identify speech blocks that belong to the same speaker. This is then all orchestrated within, within LLM to identify which speech speech block belongs to which speaker together with, you know, we identify, as I mentioned earlier, we identify the guest name and the bio. So all of that comes together with an LLM to actually then assign assigned speaker names to, to each block. Yeah. And then most of the rest of the, the pipeline we've now used, we've now migrated to LLM. So we use mainly open AI, Google models, so the Gemini models and the open AI models, and we use some perplexity basically for those things where we need, where we need web search. Yeah. That's something I'm still hoping, especially open AI will also provide us an API. Oh, why? Well, basically for us as a consumer, the more providers there are.swyx [00:34:07]: The more downtime.Kevin [00:34:08]: The more competition and it will lead to better, better results. And, um, lower costs over time. I don't, I don't see perplexity as expensive. If you use the web search, the price is like $5 per a thousand queries. Okay. Which is affordable. But, uh, if you compare that to just a normal LLM call, um, it's, it's, uh, much more expensive. Have you tried Exa? We've, uh, looked into it, but we haven't really tried it. Um, I mean, we, we started with perplexity and, uh, it works, it works well. And if I remember. Correctly, Exa is also a bit more expensive.swyx [00:34:45]: I don't know. I don't know. They seem to focus on the search thing as a search API, whereas perplexity, maybe more consumer-y business that is higher, higher margin. Like I'll put it like perplexity is trying to be a product, Exa is trying to be infrastructure. Yeah. So that, that'll be my distinction there. And then the other thing I will mention is Google has a search grounding feature. Yeah. Which you, which you might want. Yeah.Kevin [00:35:07]: Yeah. We've, uh, we've also tried that out. Um, not as good. So we, we didn't, we didn't go into. Too much detail in like really comparing it, like quality wise, because we actually already had the perplexity one and it, and it's, and it's working. Yeah. Um, I think also there, the price is actually higher than perplexity. Yeah. Really? Yeah.swyx [00:35:26]: Google should cut their prices.Kevin [00:35:29]: Maybe it was the same price. I don't want to say something incorrect, but it wasn't cheaper. It wasn't like compelling. And then, then there was no reason to switch. So, I mean, maybe like in general, like for us, given that we do work with a lot of content, price is actually something that we do look at. Like for us, it's not just about taking the best model for every task, but it's really getting the best, like identifying what kind of intelligence level you need and then getting the best price for that to be able to really scale this and, and provide us, um, yeah, let our users use these features with as many podcasts as possible. Yeah.swyx [00:36:03]: I wanted to double, double click on diarization. Yeah. Uh, it's something that I don't think people do very well. So you know, I'm, I'm a, I'm a B user. I don't have it right now. And, and they were supposed to speak, but they dropped out last minute. Um, but, uh, we've had them on the podcast before and it's not great yet. Do you use just PI Anode, the default stuff, or do you find any tricks for diarization?Kevin [00:36:27]: So we do use the, the open source packages, but we have tweaked it a bit here and there. For example, if you mentioned the BAI guys, I actually listened to the podcast episode was super nice. Thank you. And when you started talking about speaker diarization, and I just have to think about, uh, I don't know.Kevin [00:36:49]: Is it possible? I don't know. I don't know. F**k this. Yeah, no, I don't know.Kevin [00:36:55]: Yeah. We are the best. This is a.swyx [00:37:07]: I don't know. This is the best. I don't know. This is the best. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're doing good.Kevin [00:37:12]: So, so yeah. This is great. This is good. Yeah. No, so that of course helps us. Another thing that helps us is that we know certain structural aspects of the podcast. For example, how often does someone speak? Like if someone, like let's say there's a one hour episode and someone speaks for 30 seconds, that person is most probably not the guest and not the host. It's probably some ad, like some speaker from an ad. So we have like certain of these heuristics that we can use and we leverage to improve things. And in the past, we've also changed the clustering algorithm. So basically how a lot of the speaker diarization works is you basically create an embedding for the speech that's happening. And then you try to somehow cluster these embeddings and then find out this is all one speaker. This is all another speaker. And there we've also tweaked a couple of things where we again used heuristics that we could apply from knowing how podcasts function. And that's also actually why I was feeling so much with the BAI guys, because like all of these heuristics, like for them, it's probably almost impossible to use any heuristics because it can just be any situation, anything.Kevin [00:38:34]: So that's one thing that we do. Yeah, another thing is that we actually combine it with LLM. So the transcript, LLMs and the speaker diarization, like bringing all of these together to recalibrate some of the switching points. Like when does the speaker stop? When does the next one start?swyx [00:38:51]: The LLMs can add errors as well. You know, I wouldn't feel safe using them to be so precise.Kevin [00:38:58]: I mean, at the end of the day, like also just to not give a wrong impression, like the speaker diarization is also not perfect that we're doing, right? I basically don't really notice it.swyx [00:39:08]: Like I use it for search.Kevin [00:39:09]: Yeah, it's not perfect yet, but it's gotten quite good. Like, especially if you compare, if you look at some of the, like if you take a latest episode and you compare it to an episode that came out a year ago, we've improved it quite a bit.swyx [00:39:23]: Well, it's beautifully presented. Oh, I love that I can click on the transcript and it goes to the timestamp. So simple, but you know, it should exist. Yeah, I agree. I agree. So this, I'm loading a two hour episode of Detect Me Right Home, where there's a lot of different guests calling in and you've identified the guest name. And yeah, so these are all LLM based. Yeah, it's really nice.Kevin [00:39:49]: Yeah, like the speaker names.swyx [00:39:50]: I would say that, you know, obviously I'm a power user of all these tools. You have done a better job than Descript. Okay, wow. Descript is so much funding. They had their open AI invested in them and they still suck. So I don't know, like, you know, keep going. You're doing great. Yeah, thanks. Thanks.Kevin [00:40:12]: I mean, I would, I would say that, especially for anyone listening who's interested in building a consumer app with AI, I think the, like, especially if your background is in AI and you love working with AI and doing all of that, I think the most important thing is just to keep reminding yourself of what's actually the job to be done here. Like, what does actually the consumer want? Like, for example, you now were just delighted by the ability to click on this word and it jumps there. Yeah. Like, this is not, this is not rocket science. This is, like, you don't have to be, like, I don't know, Android Kapathi to come up with that and build that, right? And I think that's, that's something that's super important to keep in mind.swyx [00:40:52]: Yeah, yeah. Amazing. I mean, there's so many features, right? It's, it's so packed. There's quotes that you pick up. There's summarization. Oh, by the way, I'm going to use this as my official feature request. I want to customize what, how it's summarized. I want to, I want to have a custom prompt. Yeah. Because your summarization is good, but, you know, I have different preferences, right? Like, you know.Kevin [00:41:14]: So one thing that you can already do today, I completely get your feature request. And I think it just.swyx [00:41:18]: I'm sure people have asked it.Kevin [00:41:19]: I mean, maybe just in general as a, as a, how I see the future, you know, like in the future, I think all, everything will be personalized. Yeah, yeah. Like, not, this is not specific to us. Yeah. And today we're still in a, in a phase where the cost of LLMs, at least if you're working with, like, such long context windows. As us, I mean, there's a lot of tokens in, if you take an entire podcast, so you still have to take that cost into consideration. So if for every single user, we regenerate it entirely, it gets expensive. But in the future, this, you know, cost will continue to go down and then it will just be personalized. So that being said, you can already today, if you go to the player screen. Okay. And open up the chat. Yeah. You can go to the, to the chat. Yes. And just ask for a summary in your style.swyx [00:42:13]: Yeah. Okay. I mean, I, I listen to consume, you know? Yeah. Yeah. I, I've never really used this feature. I don't know. I think that's, that's me being a slow adopter. No, no. I mean, that's. It has, when does the conversation start? Okay.Kevin [00:42:26]: I mean, you can just type anything. I think what you're, what you're describing, I mean, maybe that is also an interesting topic to talk about. Yes. Where, like, basically I told you, like, look, we have this chat. You can just ask for it. Yeah. And this is, this is how ChatGPT works today. But if you're building a consumer app, you have to move beyond the chat box. People do not want to always type out what they want. So your feature request was, even though theoretically it's already possible, what you are actually asking for is, hey, I just want to open up the app and it should just be there in a nicely formatted way. Beautiful way such that I can read it or consume it without any issues. Interesting. And I think that's in general where a lot of the, the. Opportunities lie currently in the market. If you want to build a consumer app, taking the capability and the intelligence, but finding out what the actual user interface is the best way how a user can engage with this intelligence in a natural way.swyx [00:43:24]: Is this something I've been thinking about as kind of like AI that's not in your face? Because right now, you know, we like to say like, oh, use Notion has Notion AI. And we have the little thing there. And there's, or like some other. Any other platform has like the sparkle magic wand emoji, like that's our AI feature. Use this. And it's like really in your face. A lot of people don't like it. You know, it should just kind of become invisible, kind of like an invisible AI.Kevin [00:43:49]: 100%. I mean, the, the way I see it as AI is, is the electricity of, of the future. And like no one, like, like we don't talk about, I don't know, this, this microphone uses electricity, this phone, you don't think about it that way. It's just in there, right? It's not an electricity enabled product. No, it's just a product. Yeah. It will be the same with AI. I mean, now. It's still a, something that you use to market your product. I mean, we do, we do the same, right? Because it's still something that people realize, ah, they're doing something new, but at some point, no, it'll just be a podcast app and it will be normal that it has all of this AI in there.swyx [00:44:24]: I noticed you do something interesting in your chat where you source the timestamps. Yeah. Is that part of this prompt? Is there a separate pipeline that adds source sources?Kevin [00:44:33]: This is, uh, actually part of the prompt. Um, so this is all prompt engine. Engineering, um, uh, you should be able to click on it. Yeah, I clicked on it. Um, this is all prompt engineering with how to provide the, the context, you know, we, because we provide all of the transcript, how to provide the context and then, yeah, I get them all to respond in a correct way with a certain format and then rendering that on the front end. This is one of the examples where I would say it's so easy to create like a quick demo of this. I mean, you can just go to chat to be deep, paste this thing in and say like, yeah, do this. Okay. Like 15 minutes and you're done. Yeah. But getting this to like then production level that it actually works 99% of the time. Okay. This is then where, where the difference lies. Yeah. So, um, for this specific feature, like we actually also have like countless regexes that they're just there to correct certain things that the LLM is doing because it doesn't always adhere to the format correctly. And then it looks super ugly on the front end. So yeah, we have certain regexes that correct that. And maybe you'd ask like, why don't you use an LLM for that? Because that's sort of the, again, the AI native way, like who uses regexes anymore. But with the chat for user experience, it's very important that you have the streaming because otherwise you need to wait so long until your message has arrived. So we're streaming live the, like, just like ChatGPT, right? You get the answer and it's streaming the text. So if you're streaming the text and something is like incorrect. It's currently not easy to just like pipe, like stream this into another stream, stream this into another stream and get the stream back, which corrects it, that would be amazing. I don't know, maybe you can answer that. Do you know of any?swyx [00:46:19]: There's no API that does this. Yeah. Like you cannot stream in. If you own the models, you can, uh, you know, whatever token sequence has, has been emitted, start loading that into the next one. If you fully own the models, uh, I don't, it's probably not worth it. That's what you do. It's better. Yeah. I think. Yeah. Most engineers who are new to AI research and benchmarking actually don't know how much regexing there is that goes on in normal benchmarks. It's just like this ugly list of like a hundred different, you know, matches for some criteria that you're looking for. No, it's very cool. I think it's, it's, it's an example of like real world engineering. Yeah. Do you have a tooling that you're proud of that you've developed for yourself?Kevin [00:47:02]: Is it just a test script or is it, you know? I think it's a bit more, I guess the term that has come up is, uh, vibe coding, uh, vibe coding, some, no, sorry, that's actually something else in this case, but, uh, no, no, yes, um, vibe evals was a term that in one of the talks actually on, on, um, I think it might've been the first, the first or the first day at the conference, someone brought that up. Yeah. Uh, because yeah, a lot of the talks were about evals, right. Which is so important. And yeah, I think for us, it's a bit more vibe. Evals, you know, that's also part of, you know, being a startup, we can take risks, like we can take the cost of maybe sometimes it failing a little bit or being a little bit off and our users know that and they appreciate that in return, like we're moving fast and iterating and building, building amazing things, but you know, a Spotify or something like that, half of our features will probably be in a six month review through legal or I don't know what, uh, before they could sell them out.swyx [00:48:04]: Let's just say Spotify is not very good at podcasting. Um, I have a documented, uh, dislike for, for their podcast features, just overall, really, really well integrated any other like sort of LLM focused engineering challenges or problems that you, that you want to highlight.Kevin [00:48:20]: I think it's not unique to us, but it goes again in the direction of handling the uncertainty of LLMs. So for example, with last year, at the end of the year, we did sort of a snipped wrapped. And one of the things we thought it would be fun to, just to do something with, uh, with an LLM and something with the snips that, that a user has. And, uh, three, let's say unique LLM features were that we assigned a personality to you based on the, the snips that, that you have. It was, I mean, it was just all, I guess, a bit of a fun, playful way. I'm going to look up mine. I forgot mine already.swyx [00:48:57]: Um, yeah, I don't know whether it's actually still in the, in the, we all took screenshots of it.Kevin [00:49:01]: Ah, we posted it in the, in the discord. And the, the second one, it was, uh, we had a learning scorecard where we identified the topics that you snipped on the most, and you got like a little score for that. And the third one was a, a quote that stood out. And the quote is actually a very good example of where we would run that for user. And most of the time it was an interesting quote, but every now and then it was like a super boring quotes that you think like, like how, like, why did you select that? Like, come on for there. The solution was actually just to say, Hey, give me five. So it extracted five quotes as a candidate, and then we piped it into a different model as a judge, LLM as a judge, and there we use a, um, a much better model because with the, the initial model, again, as, as I mentioned also earlier, we do have to look at the, like the, the costs because it's like, we have so much text that goes into it. So we, there we use a bit more cheaper model, but then the judge can be like a really good model to then just choose one out of five. This is a practical example.swyx [00:50:03]: I can't find it. Bad search in discord. Yeah. Um, so, so you do recommend having a much smarter model as a judge, uh, and that works for you. Yeah. Yeah. Interesting. I think this year I'm very interested in LM as a judge being more developed as a concept, I think for things like, you know, snips, raps, like it's, it's fine. Like, you know, it's, it's, it's, it's entertaining. There's no right answer.Kevin [00:50:29]: I mean, we also have it. Um, we also use the same concept for our books feature where we identify the, the mention. Books. Yeah. Because there it's the same thing, like 90% of the time it, it works perfectly out of the box one shot and every now and then it just, uh, starts identifying books that were not really mentioned or that are not books or made, yeah, starting to make up books. And, uh, they are basically, we have the same thing of like another LLM challenging it. Um, yeah. And actually with the speakers, we do the same now that I think about it. Yeah. Um, so I'm, I think it's a, it's a great technique. Interesting.swyx [00:51:05]: You run a lot of calls.Kevin [00:51:07]: Yeah.swyx [00:51:08]: Okay. You know, you mentioned costs. You move from self hosting a lot of models to the, to the, you know, big lab models, open AI, uh, and Google, uh, non-topic.Kevin [00:51:18]: Um, no, we love Claude. Like in my opinion, Claude is the, the best one when it comes to the way it formulates things. The personality. Yeah. The personality. Okay. I actually really love it. But yeah, the cost is. It's still high.swyx [00:51:36]: So you cannot, you tried Haiku, but you're, you're like, you have to have Sonnet.Kevin [00:51:40]: Uh, like basically we like with Haiku, we haven't experimented too much. We obviously work a lot with 3.5 Sonnet. Uh, also, you know, coding. Yeah. For coding, like in cursor, just in general, also brainstorming. We use it a lot. Um, I think it's a great brainstorm partner, but yeah, with, uh, with, with a lot of things that we've done done, we opted for different models.swyx [00:52:00]: What I'm trying to drive at is how much cheaper can you get if you go from cloud to cloud? Closed models to open models. And maybe it's like 0% cheaper, maybe it's 5% cheaper, or maybe it's like 50% cheaper. Do you have a sense?Kevin [00:52:13]: It's very difficult to, to judge that. I don't really have a sense, but I can, I can give you a couple of thoughts that have gone through our minds over the time, because obviously we do realize like, given that we, we have a couple of tasks where there are just so many tokens going in, um, at some point it will make sense to, to offload some of that. Uh, to an open source model, but going back to like, we're, we're a startup, right? Like we're not an AI lab or whatever, like for us, actually the most important thing is to iterate fast because we need to learn from our users, improve that. And yeah, just this velocity of this, these iterations. And for that, the closed models hosted by open AI, Google is, uh, and swapping, they're just unbeatable because you just, it's just an API call. Yeah. Um, so you don't need to worry about. Yeah. So much complexity behind that. So this is, I would say the biggest reason why we're not doing more in this space, but there are other thoughts, uh, also for the future. Like I see two different, like we basically have two different usage patterns of LLMs where one is this, this pre-processing of a podcast episode, like this initial processing, like the transcription, speaker diarization, chapterization. We do that once. And this, this usage pattern it's, it's quite predictable. Because we know how many podcasts get released when, um, so we can sort of have a certain capacity and we can, we, we're running that 24 seven, it's one big queue running 24 seven.swyx [00:53:44]: What's the queue job runner? Uh, is it a Django, just like the Python one?Kevin [00:53:49]: No, that, that's just our own, like our database and the backend talking to the database, picking up jobs, finding it back. I'm just curious in orchestration and queues. I mean, we, we of course have like, uh, a lot of other orchestration where we're, we're, where we use, uh, the Google pub sub, uh, thing, but okay. So we have this, this, this usage pattern of like very predictable, uh, usage, and we can max out the, the usage. And then there's this other pattern where it's, for example, the snippet where it's like a user, it's a user action that triggers an LLM call and it has to be real time. And there can be moments where it's by usage and there can be moments when there's very little usage for that. There. So that's, that's basically where these LLM API calls are just perfect because you don't need to worry about scaling this up, scaling this down, um, handling, handling these issues. Serverless versus serverful.swyx [00:54:44]: Yeah, exactly. Okay.Kevin [00:54:45]: Like I see them a bit, like I see open AI and all of these other providers, I see them a bit as the, like as the Amazon, sorry, AWS of, of AI. So it's a bit similar how like back before AWS, you would have to have your, your servers and buy new servers or get rid of servers. And then with AWS, it just became so much easier to just ramp stuff up and down. Yeah. And this is like the taking it even, even, uh, to the next level for AI. Yeah.swyx [00:55:18]: I am a big believer in this. Basically it's, you know, intelligence on demand. Yeah. We're probably not using it enough in our daily lives to do things. I should, we should be able to spin up a hundred things at once and go through things and then, you know, stop. And I feel like we're still trying to figure out how to use LLMs in our lives effectively. Yeah. Yeah.Kevin [00:55:38]: 100%. I think that goes back to the whole, like that, that's for me where the big opportunity is for, if you want to do a startup, um, it's not about, but you can let the big labs handleswyx [00:55:48]: the challenge of more intelligence, but, um, it's the... Existing intelligence. How do you integrate? How do you actually incorporate it into your life? AI engineering. Okay, cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Um, the one, one other thing I wanted to touch on was multimodality in frontier models. Dwarcash had a interesting application of Gemini recently where he just fed raw audio in and got diarized transcription out or timestamps out. And I think that will come. So basically what we're saying here is another wave of transformers eating things because right now models are pretty much single modality things. You know, you have whisper, you have a pipeline and everything. Yeah. You can't just say, Oh, no, no, no, we only fit like the raw, the raw files. Do you think that will be realistic for you? I 100% agree. Okay.Kevin [00:56:38]: Basically everything that we talked about earlier with like the speaker diarization and heuristics and everything, I completely agree. Like in the, in the future that would just be put everything into a big multimodal LLM. Okay. And it will output, uh, everything that you want. Yeah. So I've also experimented with that. Like just... With, with Gemini 2? With Gemini 2.0 Flash. Yeah. Just for fun. Yeah. Yeah. Because the big difference right now is still like the cost difference of doing speaker diarization this way or doing transcription this way is a huge difference to the pipeline that we've built up. Huh. Okay.swyx [00:57:15]: I need to figure out what, what that cost is because in my mind 2.0 Flash is so cheap. Yeah. But maybe not cheap enough for you.Kevin [00:57:23]: Uh, no, I mean, if you compare it to, yeah, whisper and speaker diarization and especially self-hosting it and... Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.swyx [00:57:30]: Yeah.Kevin [00:57:30]: Okay. But we will get there, right? Like this is just a question of time.swyx [00:57:33]: And, um, at some point, as soon as that happens, we'll be the first ones to switch. Yeah. Awesome. Anything else that you're like sort of eyeing on the horizon as like, we are thinking about this feature, we're thinking about incorporating this new functionality of AI into our, into our app? Yeah.Kevin [00:57:50]: I mean, we, there's so many areas that we're thinking about, like our challenge is a bit more... Choosing. Yeah. Choosing. Yeah. So, I mean, I think for me, like looking into like the next couple of years, like the big areas that interest us a lot, basically four areas, like one is content. Um, right now it's, it's podcasts. I mean, you did mention, I think you mentioned like you can also upload audio books and YouTube videos. YouTube. I actually use the YouTube one a fair amount. But in the future, we, we want to also have audio books natively in the app. And, uh, we want to enable AI generated content. Like just think of, take deep research and notebook analysis. Like put these together. That should be, that should be in our app. The second area is discovery. I think in general. Yeah.swyx [00:58:38]: I noticed that you don't have, so you

Lex interviews Michael Heinrich, co-founder and CEO of 0G (Zero Gravity) Labs. In this exciting episode, Lex and Michael explore the concept of decentralized artificial intelligence (AI) and how it differs from centralized, closed-source AI models provided by big tech companies. Michael kicks off with his background in tech and finance, and how he became interested in decentralized AI as a solution to the issues with closed AI systems. Notable discussion points: (1) Decentralized AI provides transparency and verifiability around the data, training, and model alignment used, unlike closed AI systems. (2) Blockchain-based systems can help enforce a "code of conduct" for AI models and ensure fair rewards distribution for data contributors. (3) 0G Labs is building a decentralized AI operating system focused on key components like decentralized storage, data availability, and a serving layer for AI inference. (4) And lastly, the company is working with various providers of AI verification mechanisms (zKML, OPML, TEML, etc.) to integrate with their decentralized AI platform. The ultimate goal is to provide a seamless user experience for building and deploying decentralized AI applications, similar to how centralized tech platforms operate today. MENTIONED IN THE CONVERSATION Topics: 0G, 0G Labs, Zero Gravity Labs, Bridgewater Associates, ORA, Story Protocol, AI, Artificial Intelligence, Decentralized AI, Tokenized AI, Web3, Blockchain, zkML, TeeML, OPML, SPML ABOUT THE FINTECH BLUEPRINT

YouTube Music se prepara para introducir la opción "Trim Silence" en sus podcasts, optimizando la experiencia de escuchar al omitir silencios prolongadosYouTube Music está potenciando su oferta de podcasts con la próxima incorporación de una función denominada "Trim Silence", destinada a mejorar significativamente la experiencia del usuario. Esta novedad llega justo cuando Google Podcasts se desvanece, marcando un paso adelante en la evolución de YouTube Music hacia una plataforma más integral.Hasta ahora, YouTube Music no se había diseñado como una aplicación de podcasts. Sin embargo, Google ha estado expandiendo rápidamente su funcionalidad en este ámbito, añadiendo características esenciales como la suscripción a podcasts vía RSS y descargas automáticas para episodios nuevos. Este desarrollo se alinea con la eliminación gradual de Google Podcasts.Ampliando horizontes en podcasts, YouTube Music enfrenta el reto de incorporar funciones claves que aún faltan, mientras el tiempo se agota para Google Podcasts. A pesar de estas limitaciones, la adición de "Trim Silence" marca un avance significativo, apuntando hacia una mejora en la eficiencia de la escucha de podcasts.Aunque la función "Trim Silence" todavía no está activa en YouTube Music, su futura implementación promete una experiencia de usuario más fluida y sin interrupciones, optimizando el tiempo de reproducción de los podcasts al omitir los silencios.Con el cierre de Google Podcasts en marzo de 2024, los usuarios deben migrar sus suscripciones a YouTube Music o exportar sus datos a otra aplicación compatible con OPML. Mientras tanto, Spotify introduce videos musicales para suscriptores Premium en 11 mercados, enriqueciendo su oferta de contenido.Para profundizar en las novedades de YouTube Music y Spotify, visita ElSiglo21esHoy.com, donde encontrarás análisis y discusiones sobre las últimas tendencias en música y tecnología.

Olá, eu sou Leo Lopes e este é o POD NOTÍCIAS, a sua dose semanal de informação sobre o mercado de podcasts no Brasil e no mundo! Hoje é segunda-feira, dia 11 de março de 2024 e esta é a nossa sexta edição! 1 - A gente começa o episódio de hoje falando sobre como os podcasts estão substituindo o consumo das mídias tradicionais. Segundo o relatório mais recente da KS&R Report, o "Podcast Frenzy", todas as gerações têm ouvido mais podcast, e consumido menos das outras mídias - e esse crescimento é notado especialmente no público com idades entre 12 e 23 anos. Uma boa parte da Geração Z e dos Millennials ouve podcasts todos os dias, com muitos deles tendo reduzido o tempo gasto em outras atividades, como assistir TV, navegar nas redes sociais e jogar videogames. As preferências de conteúdo variam entre as gerações, com comédia sendo o tema mais popular entre os ouvintes mais jovens, enquanto a Geração X e os Baby Boomers preferem ouvir podcasts de notícias. Além disso, através do relatório, a KS&R pôde chegar a algumas conclusões sobre o que vem aí pela frente, e a empresa prevê que recursos interativos, como realidade aumentada e realidade virtual, são caminhos que vão tornar os podcasts ainda mais imersivos no futuro. O relatório completo está disponível no nosso LinkedIn do Pod Notícias. Link 2 - Ano passado a gente anunciou no antigo podcast do Castnews que o Google Podcasts ia ser descontinuado. Isso já não é nenhuma novidade, todo mundo já está sabendo, mas se você ainda usa a plataforma, o tempo pra migrar as suas assinaturas pra outros aplicativos está acabando. O Google Podcasts vai ser desativado oficialmente dia 2 de abril, daqui a menos de um mês, então esse é o momento de exportar o seu perfil de usuário pra não perder a sua biblioteca toda. A migração mais simples é pro YouTube Music, mas os usuários também podem exportar assinaturas através de um arquivo OPML, que pode ser importado por outros aplicativos de podcast. Quer saber como fazer isso? Então acessa a nossa página do LinkedIn do Pod Notícias, que a gente publicou um passo a passo tanto pra você migrar pro YouTube Music, quanto pra encontrar e baixar o arquivo OPML no Google Podcasts. É um processo simples, não tem segredo, e assim você evita de ter que assinar manualmente todos os seus programas preferidos de novo. Link AINDA EM NOTÍCIAS DA SEMANA: 3 - De acordo com o relatório The Actively Established Podcast, atualizado todo mês, o número de podcasts ativos teve um aumento de mais de 3,3% em fevereiro de 2024. O maior crescimento de novos podcasts ativos foi nos programas de entrevista feitos de forma independente (e é claro que o vídeo foi um elemento presente na maioria desses novos programas). Os podcasts e videocasts de entrevista cresceram 5,6%, e agora são mais de 120.000 programas desse tipo no mercado. Link 4 - A última atualização da Apple lançou transcrições completas de texto para cada episódio publicado no Apple Podcasts. Agora o usuário pode ler o conteúdo enquanto ouve, ou pesquisar palavras e frases específicas em texto. A nova função é um bônus de acessibilidade, porque permite que pessoas com deficiência auditiva ou surdez acompanhem o conteúdo sem reproduzir o episódio, além de ter sido projetada com fonte e contraste de cores que facilitam a leitura. As transcrições estão disponíveis em dispositivos iPhone e iPad com iOS 17.4 e iPadOS 17.4, para podcasts em inglês, francês, espanhol e alemão. Caso a transcrição gerada não esteja do jeito que o criador de conteúdo quer, ainda é possível editar o texto ou fornecer as suas próprias transcrições. Link 5 - E algumas empresas líderes no mercado de podcasting, como iHeartMedia, Spotify, SiriusXM e Acast, estão otimistas quanto ao futuro da publicidade nos podcasts. A conclusão veio depois de um crescimento na receita dos seus negócios de podcast durante o quarto trimestre de 2023. Em suas reuniões de resultados, os executivos destacaram sinais de melhora no mercado, com mais demanda de anunciantes. A iHeartMedia registrou um aumento de 17% no quarto trimestre de 2023. O Spotify, por sua vez, está se aproximando da maior margem de lucro com podcasting até agora, enquanto a Acast espera bater sua meta ainda este ano. Embora aquela atualização do iOS 17 da Apple tenha impactado os negócios, já que parou de fazer o download automático dos episódios, as empresas estão confiantes em uma recuperação e preveem crescimento contínuo nos próximos meses. Link E MAIS: 6 - O Independent Podcast Awards está de volta em 2024 com novas categorias a serem anunciadas na premiação. O evento vai acontecer em Londres no dia 23 de outubro, e, segundo a organização, vai ser um sucesso ainda maior do que a primeira edição que rolou ano passado. O local onde a premiação vai acontecer é o auditório Kings Place. Ano passado, a premiação teve mais de 350 inscrições e premiou 22 programas, todos feitos por produtores de conteúdo independentes do Reino Unido e da Irlanda. Mais uma vez, apenas podcasters que moram nesses locais são elegíveis à participar da premiação, mas o podcast pode ter hosts de fora, desde que pelo menos metade da mesa seja do Reino Unido ou Irlanda. Link 7 - Os Price Brothers, desenvolvedores líderes em inteligência artificial, lançaram seu serviço de Publicidade Contextual para anúncios lidos por apresentadores de podcast. O programa utiliza direcionamento dinâmico e tecnologia de clonagem de voz para imitar a voz dos hosts de podcasts e aumentar a eficiência dos anúncios, já que também são criadas campanhas automáticas de marketing que façam sentido com o tema. É uma doideira. É claro que isso gerou interesse e debate na comunidade científica, já que esse assunto sempre levanta questões éticas sobre o controle e uso responsável das IA's de clonagem. Enquanto alguns entusiastas já estão comemorando o potencial da tecnologia, várias outras pessoas criticam o uso desenfreado de inteligência artificial, já que ainda não existe uma regulamentação clara que garanta à sociedade sua segurança e privacidade. O que resta pra nós é esperar pra ver no que vai dar. Porque uma coisa é o apresentador de podcast criar uma campanha com a própria voz, mas outra totalmente diferente é um robô clonar a voz de uma pessoa que não autorizou esse uso. Isso aí ainda vai dar pano pra manga. Link 8 - E nas dicas de produção dessa semana, a gente vai te ensinar a criar um nicho pro seu podcast. O guia foi feito pelo Daniel Lucas, e a gente traduziu ele na íntegra lá no nosso LinkedIn do Pod Notícias, mas é óbvio que a gente vai dar uma palhinha aqui também: Para criar o seu nicho na podosfera, primeiro você tem que descobrir uma área de interesse e um público em potencial. Depois, identificar tudo aquilo que você conhece e tudo aquilo que te desperta paixão, porque é com esse tipo de conteúdo que o ouvinte quer se conectar. Outro passo importante é encontrar lacunas em podcasts que já existem, onde você possa imprimir a sua própria versão do conteúdo. Por exemplo, existem milhares de podcasts de tecnologia por aí. Mas como é que seria o seu podcast de tecnologia? Como é que você imprime a sua identidade no projeto? Enfim, o objetivo é combinar a sua paixão com um pouco de estratégia, que é para construir a sua base sólida de ouvintes. É como eu sempre falo: se você fala de algo que você entende muito, você fala com propriedade. Se você fala de algo que você gosta muito, você fala com paixão. Quando você junta as duas coisas, a chance de dar certo é maior. Não deixa de conferir lá no nosso LinkedIn do Pod Notícias, vale muito a pena. Link HOJE NO GIRO SOBRE PESSOAS QUE FAZEM A MÍDIA: 9 - A Branca Vianna, fundadora da Rádio Novelo e casada com o documentarista João Moreira Salles, decidiu explorar o passado do seu tataravô, o Visconde do Rio Preto, através de dois episódios do podcast ‘Rádio Novelo Apresenta'. Nos episódios 'Mexer no vespeiro' e 'O Visconde', a Branca convidou o público a conhecer questões complexas sobre a riqueza da sua própria família, que foi obtida à custa de trabalho escravo. Ela deu uma entrevista pro portal Reset sobre o tema, dizendo que o objetivo principal de ter abordado isso no podcast, foi pra estimular o debate sobre racismo, e também a responsabilidade entre a elite econômica, política e intelectual do país. O projeto foi um desafio, ela foi criticada por trazer à tona essas questões históricas, mas diz que não se arrepende porque a discussão sobre o racismo e o impacto da escravidão no Brasil ainda hoje é essencial. A entrevista completa da Branca Vianna está disponível no portal Reset, e você encontra o link na descrição desse episódio. Link 10 - E na semana passada a gente perguntou pros nossos ouvintes no Instagram, se eles preferiam ouvir anúncios no começo, no meio, ou no final dos podcasts que acompanham. Dessa vez a gente pode falar que as respostas não variaram quase nada: a maioria esmagadora prefere que os anúncios sejam feitos no começo do programa. Propagandas no meio já começam a incomodar, exceto aquelas que são muito bem colocadas e lidas pelos apresentadores (como no Mau Acompanhado, que várias pessoas usaram como exemplo), e no final do programa a maioria disse que nem ouve, porque pula o anúncio. Eu não tô surpreso, já que a maioria das pesquisas sobre publicidade em áudio apontam pra atenção do ouvinte ser maior no começo do programa do que no final, mas caso você esteja buscando patrocínio pro seu podcast, já fica a dica: anúncio é no começo. Agora, essa semana, a gente quer saber: Qual foi o último podcast que te surpreendeu ou prendeu a sua atenção? E por quê? Então participa da nossa enquete lá no nosso Instagram, em @pod.noticias e deixa a sua resposta ainda hoje, porque a Caixa de Perguntas só vai ficar no ar por 24 horas e a gente quer saber a sua opinião. Instagram do Pod Notícias SOBRE LANÇAMENTOS: 11 - E nessa semana foram vários! O primeiro deles é o novo podcast do Instituto Natura: "Diálogos Sobre a Educação na América Latina". O programa é apresentado pelo David Saad, diretor-presidente do Instituto Natura, e o objetivo do conteúdo é explorar maneiras de impulsionar a educação no Brasil. O Diálogos Sobre a Educação não fala sobre aspectos pedagógicos, mas sim questões relacionadas à políticas educacionais de qualidade. Cada episódio da primeira temporada vai contar com um convidado especial pra desenvolver os temas. O podcast está disponível nas principais plataformas de áudio e tem novos episódios lançados quinzenalmente, às quintas-feiras. Link 12 - A Faculdade de Filosofia, Letras e Ciências Humanas da USP também lançou um novo podcast sobre a antiguidade grega e latina, o "Narrativas do Mármore". O episódio inaugural, "Textualidade e Materialidade", apresenta como convidados os professores Paulo Martins e Eduardo Aubert, do Departamento de Letras Clássicas e Vernáculas. Eles discutem temas como a interseção entre imagem e poesia na antiguidade clássica. O programa tem o intuito de difundir os conhecimentos sobre a Antiguidade, promover a conexão entre os pesquisadores acadêmicos e o público geral, e está disponível no YouTube e no Spotify. Link 13 - Também foi anunciada na última semana o lançamento da quarta temporada do podcast "Serial", um sucesso internacional de jornalismo investigativo - que abriu as portas pra esse formato de podcast narrativo e de true crime. Nesta temporada, as apresentadores Sarah Koenig e Dana Chivvis mergulham na história da prisão de Guantánamo em Cuba. Criada depois dos ataques de 11 de setembro, a prisão evoluiu ao longo de duas décadas e se tornou uma instituição, no mínimo, controversa. O podcast conta com entrevistas detalhadas com guardas, advogados, ex-prisioneiros e muito mais. O lançamento da nova do Serial temporada está marcado para 28 de março. Link 14 - E nessa edição, também tem lançamento de equipamento! A Shure lançou o MoveMic, um sistema de microfone de lapela sem fio que combina tamanho compacto com qualidade de áudio de transmissão. Desenvolvido especialmente para criadores de conteúdo e jornalistas móveis, o MoveMic oferece uma solução leve para capturar áudio de alta qualidade em movimento. Ele é compatível com smartphones através de conexão direta e também oferece a opção de receptor para outras plataformas, então é um equipamento flexível, e pode aguentar 24 horas de gravação por cada carga. Além disso, o controle completo do aplicativo permite aos usuários ajustar as configurações de áudio de acordo com todo tipo de necessidade. O MoveMic já está disponível pra compra no site oficial da Shure, pela bagatela de 2 mil reais. Link EVENTO: 15 - E nesse sábado vai estar acontecendo em Barueri - São Paulo o Workshop PODCAST PRO, organizado pela Podcast Experience com a Produtora 76. O evento serve pra criar networking com a comunidade de produtores de podcast e também absorver conhecimentos pra alavancar os seus projetos de podcasting. As vagas são limitadas, e as inscrições devem ser feitas o quanto antes. O link está disponível na descrição desse episódio. Link RECOMENDAÇÃO NACIONAL: 16 - E a nossa recomendação nacional desta semana vai para o podcast "Histórias para ouvir lavando louça" (adorei esse nome!), apresentado pelo Alexandre Simone e o Lucas Galdino. Como o próprio nome já sugere, o programa apresenta histórias reais, de gente como a gente, pra você ouvir e se inspirar enquanto dá aquela geral na sua cozinha. São histórias enviadas pelos próprios ouvintes, que o Alexandre e o Lucas apresentam com bastante carisma, bom humor e, principalmente, sensibilidade. O podcast já tem vários episódios no feed, então você pode ouvir lavando louça, lavando o banheiro, dando um banho no seu cachorro e por aí vai. E aqui eu já deixo o aviso: esse é um daqueles podcasts altamente maratonáveis, que você vai ouvir 10 episódios sem nem perceber que o tempo passou. É o tipo de podcast bom. O Histórias para ouvir lavando louça publica episódios novos toda semana, sempre às terças-feiras. Então já assina o podcast no seu agregador de podcast preferido, porque as histórias passam, mas a louça sempre volta. Link E assim a gente fecha esta sexta edição do Pod Notícias.

Hola soy Abe Estrada y esto es Nortbits, un podcast sobre tecnología de Border FM. Comenzamos el año con la noticia sobre el próximo evento de Samsung Galaxy Unpacked tendrá lugar el 14 de enero, según ha confirmado el gigante surcoreano, y se espera que la presentación en vivo incluya la gama Galaxy S21, incluyendo el S21+ y el S21 Ultra. Una invitación en video para el evento, subtitulada “Welcome to the Everyday Epic”, confirma los rumores de un lanzamiento en enero, que será retransmitido por YouTube a las 10 de la mañana del 14 de enero. Publicada el domingo por la noche, la invitación proporciona relativamente pocas pistas sobre lo que se puede esperar, pero una gran cantidad de rumores y filtraciones parecen haber cubierto casi todo lo que Samsung mostrará. El corto video muestra un objeto negro borroso flotando dentro de un cubo de vidrio esmerilado generado por computadora, con el objeto aparentemente teniendo tres baches en un lado. Basándose en rumores anteriores, esto puede ser en referencia a un nuevo diseño de la protuberancia de la cámara para los nuevos modelos de smartphones, que incorporará la protuberancia en el material del chasis principal en la esquina. Quibi la plataforma americana de streaming de corta duración que generaba contenidos para ser vistos en dispositivos móviles. Se encuentra en conversaciones avanzadas con Roku, para adquirir los programas originales creados para la aplicación de video de corta duración, según personas familiarizadas con el tema. Los términos que se están discutiendo le darían a Roku los derechos de toda la biblioteca de contenido original de Quibi, informa The Wall Street Journal, aunque los términos exactos de la negociación aún no se han discutido. Es poco probable que los videos se acerquen a los 1, 750 millones de dólares que Quibi recaudó en fondos. La adquisición de la lista de contenidos exclusivos de Quibi sería un gran paso para Roku, una empresa que depende en gran medida de la agregación de los programas de otras empresas para su propio negocio. Esperemos que la compra de los shows de Quibi no termine sometiendo a Roku al destino de su anterior dueño. Twitter ha confirmado la adquisición de Breaker, una aplicación de podcasts centrada en la interacción social. El anuncio se hizo a través del blog oficial de Breaker el lunes, ya que la compañía menciona que su equipo ayudará a construir la nueva función Twitter Spaces. Al igual que otras aplicaciones de podcast, Breaker permite a los usuarios buscar, descubrir, administrar y suscribirse a los podcasts. Sin embargo, también cuenta con su propia red social para que los usuarios puedan seguir a sus amigos y también gustar, comentar y compartir sus podcasts favoritos. El mes pasado Twitter anunció públicamente que está probando Twitter Spaces, que funcionan como salas de chat con audio dentro de la red social. No hay detalles sobre qué tipo de tecnología construirá el equipo de Breaker, aunque la capacidad de exportar conversaciones para escucharlas más tarde, al estilo de los podcasts, podría ayudar a extender las discusiones más allá de las personas que están escuchando en vivo. El equipo de Breaker también anunció que su aplicación de podcast se cerrará el 15 de enero, y dirigió a los usuarios sobre cómo exportar su lista de suscripciones de OPML para utilizarla en otras aplicaciones de podcast, y para los podcasts alojados, cómo transferirlos a otro servicio.

Fredrik chats with Dave Jones of Podcast index - a new open podcast directory and API, and also one of the drivers of a new podcasting namespace for RSS. Podcasting as infrastructure has not advanced much at all in a long time. Dave, Adam and Podcast index wants to preserve podcasting as free and distributed, and also advance what the ecosystem can be - such as providing value. The namespace contains down-to-earth things such as chapters and location tags, but also much more ambitious ideas. Part of the vision is to reimagine podcasting as a platform of value where listeners can more easily and naturally support not only podcasters, but also app developers and anyone else who might be involved. This is where the value tag and cryptocurrencies enter the picture. We also discuss programming languages a bit - what it takes to entice you to really get into a programming language. Perhaps the specific languages we use are no longer as critical as they used to be? How hard is it to set up your own podcast directory? Not that hard, says David, but keeping it within a sane budget can take some balancing. And if everyone supported Websub things wouldn’t be nearly as tricky.

On this show we got the developer of the Downcast App talking about accessibility and the importance of providing access by developers. George Cox joins Brian and Jeff in the studio to talk about the Downcast App and how the app has progressed and what may be coming in the near future. The Downcast app is one of the most accessible and customizable apps in the Pod-Catcher field. Brian and Jeff use it as their workhorse podcast player and believe me, they both have it set up differently and exactly how they want to download and listen to podcasts. Here is a description of the Downcast app: Description A powerful, complete, and easy to use podcast player that will help you manage and listen to podcasts the way you want to.

Per aumentare la tua visibilità così come la tua autorevolezza, credibilità e reputazione online, ci sono altre decine di format interessanti, utili e originali, che non solo forniscono tanto valore ma che sono anche strumenti ideali per differenziarsi dalla concorrenza. Oltre ai dieci e più tipi di “contenuti che spaccano” che ti ho già fatto conoscere nelle nove puntate precedenti, in questo episodio del podcast “da Brand a Friend” te ne suggerisco altri otto.◾Podcast - si, in particolare se hai la capacità di comunicare in maniera chiara e sintetica, senza perderti nei tuoi stessi discorsi, e se sai trasmettere energia ed emozioni attraverso le tue parole. Ha di particolarmente buono, che non richiede grosse competenze tecniche per essere realizzato, le attrezzature necessarie sono a basso costo e può essere prodotto anche interamente con uno smartphone. Non ideale per chi parla un sacco senza saper cristallizzare l'essenza di ciò che vuole dire in poche parole. Ideale per chi ha una forte voce “dentro” che vuole esprimersi e far sentire il suo punto di vista. Consente di far sentire la tua voce. Di raccontare storie che sono l'elemento che più coinvolge le persone. Ha il grandissimo vantaggio di poter far “immaginare” le persone, rendendolo molto più potente da questo punto di vista del video. L'ascoltatore partecipa attivamente al podcast dipingendo nella sua mente ciò che viene raccontato o descritto nel podcast. E' un medium che consente a chi ne usufruisce di poter fare altre cose allo stesso tempo. Posso ascoltare un podcast mentre guido la macchina, mentre sono in viaggio, mentre faccio palestra o mentre lavo i piatti. Non è possibile fare la stessa cosa con un articolo scritto o con un video.E' anzi un complemento ed un'alternativa agli articoli ed ai video da cui può essere facilmente derivato. Ha la caratteristica di essere diretto, personale, intimo. Dura nel tempo. E' periodico.Strumenti utili:Spreaker.comAnchor.fmAudacity◾Web Radio A differenza dei podcast la web radio è un canale digitale sempre in onda su Internet. Possiamo considerarlo un format perché consente di creare un flusso di contenuti continuo. Una web radio può contenere contenuti in diretta e contenuti registrati. Offre l'opportunità di fare dirette, con interviste e ospiti, di seguire eventi dal vivo, e di curare i contenuti di un podcast riprogrammandoli e organizzandoli in serie.Per chi volesse usarla per fare una canale musicale legato al brand, è necessario tenere in seria considerazione l'elemento diritti di autore, poiché questo è un costo non indifferente. Per maggiori info: https://www.siae.it/it Strumenti utili: https://Radio.co (piattaforma tipica per creare una web radio - non sono inclusi i costi dei diritti d'autore da pagare se si trasmette musica commerciale)https://Radionomy.com (consente di trasmettere musica commerciale senza pagare i diritti)◾ EserciziAltro format raro e interessante sono gli esercizi e le pratiche guidate. Collezioni di metodi per fare delle cose specifiche.Esempi: https://toolbox.hyperisland.com/ https://www.circulardesignguide.com/methodshttp://www.liberatingstructures.com/◾Liste di fonti (feed RSS)Formato rarissimo quanto utile. Creare liste di feed RSS di fonti e autori rilevanti per un argomento specifico e condividerla pubblicamente con i propri lettori, di modo che anche loro, usando Feedly o un altro lettore di feed RSS, possa seguire da un unica interfaccia tutti gli aggiornamenti rilevanti su un argomento specifico.

La ricetta vincente è il fornire info base su un argomento specifico per 5-15 min max e poi rispondere in diretta a domande dal pubblico su quell'argomento specifico.Esempi: https://www.facebook.com/groups/fattidiseo/ ◾Classifica - Best OfRaccolta ordinata dei top performer in un settore specifico: tools, siti web, blog, negozi online, articoli su temi specifici, libri, etc. Esempi:Top 100 Negozi online fatti con Shopifyhttps://ecommerceranker.com/Top 200 tools per l'apprendimentohttps://www.toptools4learning.com/Top Collaboration Toolshttps://collaboration-software.financesonline.com/c/collaboration-tools◾TimelineVisualizzazione cronologica di eventi legati ad un argomento specifico. La storia di qualcosa illustrata attraverso le tappe della sua evoluzione. La storia di un argomento attraverso la cronologia degli autori, protagonisti e personaggi che ne hanno fatto la storia.Esempi: https://www.targetprocess.com/blog/42-timelines-is-the-answer/https://www.webdesigndev.com/timeline-design/https://venngage.com/blog/timeline-template/ https://www.pinterest.pt/pin/550354016945516080/Wordpress templates for publishing timelineshttps://www.webdesigndev.com/timeline-design/◾Lista di Esperti di SettoreElenco (idealmente commentato) di esperti in un settore specifico.

Neben einer Ladung Follow-up widmen sich die drei Piloten dem Thema Life-Logging. Danach sind sie so ausgepowert, dass sie erst einmal über das Angebot von Podcasts-Apps auf dem Markt reden. Lieber Fluggast, wenn dir das Gehörte gefällt oder dir Sorgenfalten auf die edle Stirn fabriziert, dann haben wir etwas für dich: iTunes Bewertungen. Überbleibsel BusyContacts Andreas hat sich BusyContacts gekauft und damit dank der Twitter-Integration auch erst einmal die Liste mit Leuten gekürzt, welchen er auf Twitter followed. Auch die Email-Schnittstelle findet er ganz praktisch. YouNow und Whisper Nach der letzten Show ist Patrick für 3 Stunden bei YouNow und Whisper hängen geblieben. Seine YouNow Highlights: Eine 17-jährige die sich während ihrer YouNow-Übertragung bei BaseChat einloggt und dort gnadenlos die Jungs beschimpft, welche sie unverhohlen angraben. Ein Skype Duo, wo sie Telefonstreiche macht und er die Daten der Doofen sammelt. Die Männer, welcher Opfer des Telefonstreichs wurden sollten unterwürfig wie ein Hund bellen und natürlich stöhnen. Ein Typ der beim Fernsehen eingeschlafen ist…. Kurz, es ist wie Sven es schon vorletzte Woche vermutet hat wirklich das RTL2 des Internets. Patricks Resümee: 90% viele langweilige und gelangweilte Teens und 10% Kreativität. Er bedauert, dass er nun über YouNow bescheid und würde gerne die Zeit zurückdrehen und verhindern, dass er auf dieses Portal stößt. Whisper hat er sich auch angeschaut. Erinnert hat es in an FML und Beichthaus.com – (nur halt mit Bildern). Beide Dinger sind absolute Zeitfresser, taugen aber eventuell als Klolektüre. Trotzdem werden von nun an beide Sachen blockiert bei ihm. Andreas hat derweil seinen ersten Whisper-Hit hingelegt und bleibt dabei: Ein für gut befundenes Seitenprojekt vom Whisper Team ist “Your Voice”… und da dies das Follow-Up zu letzter Woche ist, gibt es noch eine Anleitung zu Snapchat. Überschallneuigkeiten Affinity Photo Nach Affinity Designer gibt es von Serif nun auch Affinity Photo in einer Beta-Version. Dranbleiben und testen, dass könnte interessant werden. Prezi Macher bringt Nutshell Source: Introducing Nutshell - YouTube Ob als Präsentations- oder Mobile Video Follow-Up. Whatever. Nutshell it heißt es demnächst und befähigt euch dazu auf die Schnelle Videos mit Fotos und kleinen Illustrationen zu kombinieren. Seht selbst: Apple Watch Spekulationen Im März oder April könnte es schon soweit sein… und Sven ist schwach geworden und holt sich wahrscheinlich entgegen seiner Behauptungen doch die eine Apfeluhr aus der ersten Auflage. Erstes Produktionsvolumen und Verteilung über die verschiedenen Modelle Das Wall Street Journal (WSJ), traditionell recht gut informiert, möchte in Erfahrung gebracht haben, dass Apple für die erste Charge Apple Watches 5 Mio. Stück vorsieht. Die Hälfte davon für das “Sport”-Einsteigermodell. John Gruber rechnet gleich mal hoch, wie bei der gerüchteweise Verteilung zwischen Modellen, eine etwaige Umsatzverteilung und -entwicklung aussehen würde. Dabei wird schon klar, dass entweder aktuelle Preisspekulationen, vor allem was die höhenwertigen Modelle anbelangt, oder die Produktionsvolumen, die das WSJ veröffentlicht hat, kaum stimmen können. Denn Apple würden dann mit der kleinsten Stückzahl aller Modelle bei der “Gold Edition” 5 Milliarden US$ pro Quartal machen, was dem weit größten Umsatzanteil über alle Modelle hinweg entsprechen würde. Aber: Wer weiss schon genaues. Preise, vor allem für die “Gold”-Modelle Stephen Foskett, ein durchaus ernstzunehmender Uhren- und Schmuckexperte rechnet vor, warum die “Gold Edition” bis zu 9,999 US$ kosten muss und soll. IFTTT Do Neben IFTTT Do Button hat das IFTTT Team die Hauptapp auf iOS in “IF” umgetauft und noch Do Camera und Do Note rausgehauen. Apple Auddo Stille Post. Wer den von Apple abgeworben wurde und was Sache ist erfahrt ihr von Sven. Der hat mal seine Lauscher aufgespannt und fast die bisherigen Gerüchte zusammen. Patrick fällt bei dem Stichwort The Oatmeal mit seinem Testbericht zu Googles automatisch fahrendem Auto ein. Die Redaktion sieht Apple übrigens nicht in der Automobilbranche. Neuigkeiten zum Thema werden wir trotzdem verübercasten. Lifelogging Nachdem Slogger nicht so regelmäßig upgedatet wurde wie unser Andreas sich das gewünscht hätte, ist Andreas auf eine IFTTT-Lösung umgestiegen. Er erhofft sich daraus eine stärker visualisierte Auswertung, statt einer groben Zusammenfassung. Ein gutes Beispiel für persönliches Logging ist der Herr Feltron, welcher hier immer seinen Jahresreport mit ordentlich Grafikschmackes abgibt. Wer es jetzt sprichwörtlich noch bildlicher haben möchte, kann sich den $149 teuren Narrative Clip anschauen, welcher in kurzen Zeitabständen ein Bild aufnimmt. Beispiele gibt’s hier oder hier. Auf dem iPhone kann man das auch manuell machen mit einer App, z.B. mit 1 Second Everyday. Andreas stört, dass die App momentan noch die Camera Roll nimmt, um die kleinen Videos abzuspeichern. Die iOS App Dayli nutzt Patrick, um den täglichen Mugshot zu machen. Seit Mai 2012 ist er dabei, schafft es nicht jeden Tag, kommt aber immerhin auf 632 Fotos. Rund die Hälfte der Fotos stammt aus Everyday, welches nicht mehr upgedatet wurde seit ein paar Jahren. Wie dem auch sei, wen es interessiert der kann hier 3 Jahre Patrick in 40 Sekunden anschauen. Apropos Patrick…. Wenn einer von euch eine Empfehlung für’s loggen hat, welche die folgenden Anforderung erfüllt, so schickt ihm doch eine Nachricht auf Twitter oder an den Übercast. Das sollte sie können: Kategorien selbst wählen: z.B. Taillenumfang wird eigentlich nirgends unterstützt bei den “Großen” grafische Aufbereitung, evtl. auch ein Backend oder eine API mehr als nur GoogleSpreadsheet Podcasts hören Einleitend wird geklärt, wer wie schnell seine Podcasts hört. Anlass zu dieser kleinen Diskussion ist das Statement John Lagomarsinos von The Verge: “Stop listening to podcasts at 1.5×” worauf Mr. Overcast aka Marco Arment geantwortet hat “jedem das seine”. Andreas wird dann noch genötigt eine Empfehlung für einen Putz-Podcast abzugeben und hat erstaunlicherweise auch prompt eine parat: Aufgeräumt. Fest steht, dass Podcasts von den Piloten eher als Unterhaltungsprogramm gesehen wird, im Vergleich zu Hörbüchern, welche dann eher mit voller Aufmerksamkeit genossen werden – Sprachpause und Intonation kommen so halt mehr zu Geltung als wenn man nebenher etwas auf fünffacher Geschwindigkeit hört. Es folgt nun eine Zusammenfassung über einige Podcast Apps zum hören. Downcast Downcast ist unser Purist unter den Apps. Optisch nicht ganz on-point, aber es kann alles was man zum hören braucht und wirkt nicht super überladen. Simple und gut. Overcast Universal für iOS plus Web Interface Smart Speed verkürzt Pausen und erhöht Abspielgeschwindigkeit unmerklich Voice Boost hebt die Stimmen (in schlecht produzierten Podcasts) hervor Gutes, kuriertes Podcast-Verzeichnis mit “Starter Packs” und guter Suche Web Interface durchaus gut Sharen von Podcastepisoden mit Timecode möglich (!!) Frei im App Store mit Einschränkungen. Für 4.99€ IAP gibts dann alles. Zurzeit ist Overcast der go-to Podcast Client von Sven und Patrick. Pocket Casts von Shifty Jelly Pocket Casts ist Patricks Ex-Favorit und hat ein sehr hübsches Interface, welches mal nicht als Liste daherkommt, sondern im Blockgrid-Stil. Die App synct ebenfalls überall hin, hat ein Webinterface, eine Android Version und ist auf iOS zu hause. Instacast Deutsches Produkt von Vemedio aus Ludwigsburg im Schwabenlande! Instacast Sync iPhone, iPad, Mac Unterstützt Flattr Gute Unterstützung von Show Notes Bonjour Sync (Schneller iOS Download über das lokale Netzwerk, wenn die Episode bereits von Instacast für Mac runter geladen worden ist) Download Einstellungen pro Podcast Erlaubt das Setzen von Bookmarks in einzelnen Episoden Spielt auch Videocasts ab und lässt die Tonspur weiterlaufen während der Screen gelockt ist → Perfekt für “Der Übercast” auf YouTube Ordentlich: Unterstützt OPML zum Austausch von Abonnements Auch eignes, kuriertes Podcast-Verzeichnis iOS: Night Mode (einmaliger IAP für 0.99€) iOS: Abonnement-weite Suche in Titeln und Show Notes (einmaliger IAP für 0.99€) 19.99$ für die Mac Version und Universal iOS umsonst mit IAPs für Service-Abo (6 Monate 9.99€, 12 Monate 14.99€) Huffduffer Huffduffer könnte man als Instapaper für Podcasts beschreiben. Per Bookmarklet kann es MP3 Dateien auf einer Webseite erkennen. Diese könnt ihr dann “bookmarken” in eurem Huffduffer Account. Weitere Features von diesem Service sind, dass ihr per Tags Ordnung reinbringen könnt. Ebenfalls könnt ihr auf die große Entdeckungstour gehen könnt und die Hörempfehlungen oder Accounts anderer durchstöbern. Wem das Konzept gefällt, es aber lieber ein wenig privater mag: rbugajewski/fuck-huff-duff jeredb/ping- Castro iPhone only Das vielleicht schönste UI Design von allen Auch sehr gutes und durchdachtes UX Design, vor allem die Swipe-Gesten machen eine Menge Sinn Eigner Audio-Algorhytmus, der die Stimmwiedergabe bei anderen Geschwindigkeiten (0.5 - 2x) deutlich verbessert Castro kostet 3.99 € im App Store und gibt es nur auf dem iPhone. Synology Download Station Wer einen Synology NAS sein eigen nennt, der kann mit der Download Station auch Podcast-Feeds automatisch runterladen. Patrick haut sich so den Stones Throw Podcast direkt in sein Musikverzeichnis und bekommt den ARD Radio-Tatort in seine Hörspielsammelung gelegt. gPodder gPodder können die Hardcore-Nerds ausprobieren. Wie bei Synology kann man hier sagen, wohin man seinen Podcast verschoben haben möchte. Super wenn man z.B. viel mit Plex macht. Unsere Picks Sven: AlterNote Andreas: Colin McRae Rally Patrick: Easy Photo Merge bzw. Easy Photo Merge Pro on the App Store on iTunes In Spenderlaune? Wir haben Flattr und PayPal am Start und würden uns freuen.

Heute pellen wir die Wurst von zwei Seiten auf. Es geht um Präsentationen. Tipps zu den besten und bewährtesten Praktiken, Workflows und die Software die einem zu einer guten Präsentation helfen kann. Link zum Bild: Svens Saal In dem Bild oben seht ihr schon worum es in diesem Rundflug heute gehen soll. Pre-zen-taht-zion-nähn. Im Übrigen ist das der Raum, an dem Pilot Sven am 27.08.2014 auf dem Podium stand und wo er eine 3-stündige Laudatio auf den Übercast gehalten hat. PS: Heute gibt’s als Giveaway den “MacSparky Presentation Field Guide” von David Sparks. Lieber Fluggast, wenn dir das Gehörte gefällt oder dir Sorgenfalten auf die edle Stirn fabriziert, dann haben wir etwas für dich: iTunes Bewertungen. Überbleibsel Im Follow-Up gibt es einen kurzen Nachtrag von Patrick zum besten Feature von Together. Dieses hatte er auch schon direkt in den Show Notes zu Episode 9 nachgereicht und wenn ihr ‘Leser’ hier seit wisst ihr das wahrscheinlich schon. Da Andreas bei unserem heutigen Thema nicht das übliche Maß an Meckereien unterbringen kann, wird dieses Segment quasi nun vorgezogen und hier in den Überbleibseln zweckentfremdet eingebracht. Heute sind Notifications der Punkt des Anstoßes und damit offiziell auf der Abschussliste: Die mangelnden Einstellungsmöglichkeiten (z.B. global Badges deaktivieren) machen unserem Andreas schwer zu schaffen. Ein Meer an Seufzern flutet durch die Bordanlage. Nun, eigentlich kann man Andreas da nur zustimmen oder bejahend zuseufzen in diesem Falle. Besonders wenn “man” halt mal 100, 200, 300, 400 Apps auf seinem Gerät hat - hust - wird der Gang ins Benachrichtigungscenter zu einem Spaziergang durch den minoischen Palast. Noch eine Anmerkung zu F.lux von Patrick… und zwar, das es diesen brillanten Helfer auch für iOS gibt… halt nur für Leute mit Jailbreak, aber gut. Hiermit gilt auch dieser Ausnahmefall als erwähnt. Lange Zeit war das der Grund für Patrick einen Jailbreak zu vollziehen. Heutzutage bleibt er im Knast, da der ja mittlerweile offene Gittergardinen hat. Überschallneuigkeiten Der Übercast™ ist nun flattr-bar, wie ihr oben an dem formschönen Button bestimmt schon gesehen habt. Da es “so ein Hübscher” ist, gibt’s den hier auch gerade noch einmal, weil es so schön war: Bisher angebunden an Flattr sind App.net und Twitter (letzteres immer dann wenn Superfav.de auch online ist :/). Das heißt, wenn alles korrekt und ordnungsgemäß läuft, sollten wir bei einem von euch verabreichten Fav-★ zeitgleich geflattr’t werden. Bei Facebook wird das ganze leider nicht per like funktionieren, da Flattr keine Facebook Pages unterstützt. Solltet ihr Instacast nutzen und Flattr dort aktiviert haben, dürften wir automatisch von euch bespendet werden – Gesetzt dem Falle Patrick hat’s gescheit eingebunden. Die nächste Überschallneuigkeit kommt von Patrick’s Vater der sich mit seinen wöchentlichen Emails an den Sohnemann dieses mal selbst übertroffen hat. Hiermit stellen wir euch Emberlight vor – die schlaue Leuchte für Jeden, dem Philips Hue zu teuer ist. Bei Emberlight handelt es sich um einen Aufsatz, welcher zwischen Birne und Fassung geschraubt wird und der dann per Smartphone angesteuert werden kann. Kompatibel ist das gute Stück mit allen dimmbaren Leuchten. Zu den Features schaut euch am besten die Kickstarter Kampagne an. Nur soviel vorweg: Presets in der Apps gibts und Distanzsensitiv (proximity) ist das gute Stück auch noch. Kostenpunkt: 2 Stück $89 (später: $115), 3 Stück $139 (später: $165), etc. – mehr auf KückSchtartā. KFZ = Keynote, Folien, Zuhörer Bitte bleiben Sie auf ihren Sitzplätzen, schalten alle elektronischen Geräte aus und klappen die Tischablage ein. Die Piloten präsentieren Ihnen gleich frisch von der Startbahn weg die… … Starterkabel & Über-Tipps Als Alpha-Präsentator fängt natürlich Sven an. Er empfiehlt “How To Not Throw Up” von Michael Lopp (Rands in Repose). Michael weißt hier auf klassische Anfängerfehler hin, welche im Übrigen sich oft auch aus reiner Unsicherheit heraus ins Präsentieren so mir nix, dir nix einschleichen können. Zum Beispiel: Zu viele Slides Zu viel Inhalt (meist Text und Bullet Points) Das ganze frei nach dem Motto: Einfach ablesen, dann komme ich schon durch. Deshalb gibt’s im verlinkten Artikel verschiedene Lösungsansätze: (1) Endlos Üben Nur durch Repetition und mehrere Probevorträge beginnt man sich die vorbereiteten Slides, deren innewohnende Aussage und den Inhalt, sowie fließende Übergange zum nächsten Punkt, zu merken. Man kann beispielsweise eine Geschichte erzählen. Wenn man dann genug geübt hat, sollte dies auch ohne die Slides klappen. Wichtig ist auch zu lernen sich bei Probeläufen selbst zuzuhören. So kann man sich in die Rolle des späteren Publikums hineinversetzen und Fehler, Ungereimtheiten, wacklige Übergänge, Wiederholungen oder auch sinnentleerte Slides einfacher aufspüren. Das Präsentieren ist eine Performance, ein Bühnenauftritt. Bei genug Übung geht es nicht mehr darum was man erzählt, sondern wie. Andreas wirft ein, das oft durch die bösen Deadlines zu wenig Zeit bleibt genau dafür – also für’s üben. Sven setzt sofort nach, der er es kennt und liebt, wenn er noch im letzten Moment eine Extra-Slide reingedrückt bekommt. In kurz: Versuchen Zeit zu finden, um alles zu festigen und auf so auf Fehlersuche zu gehen. (2) Improvisieren Variieren, das Publikum einbinden, Energie in den Vortrag packen und auf Überraschungen (von den Zuhörern gespannt sein!). Beobachte wie die Zuhörer reagieren, mache eine kurze Pause und schau Dich um. Lese das Publikum und pass deinen Vortrag an. Langsamer reden, oder schneller, mehr Pausen oder weniger, mehr gestikulieren oder weniger, rumlaufen oder stehenbleiben. Man hat extrem viele Möglichkeiten, ganz davon abgesehen das man Inhalte so oder so im Vortrag variieren kann. Das alles soll natürlich nicht dazu führen, dass man sich zwangsweise völlig verstellt, was eine Frage von Andreas in die Runde geworfene Frage klärt. Nichtsdestotrotz sollte eine gewisse Grunddynamik nach Patrick schon vorhanden sein und gezeigt werden, denn wenn die Körpersprache und Mimik zu lethargisch anmutet ist das schlichtweg nicht optimal. Man will ja nicht uninteressiert rüberkommen bei deiner eigenen Präsentation, denn das färbt ganz schnell ab. Ein paar Tipps abseits vom “Alle im Raum sind nackt”, welche praktikabel sind: Stell Dir vor Du präsentierst nur einer Person (die zufällig hundert Augenpaare hat), such Dir jemanden und erzähl ihr oder ihm für ein paar Sekunden die Geschichte, dann zum nächsten Benutze Stille aus Stilmerkmal und Ausrufezeichen. Nichts unterstreicht eine Aussage mehr als eine Pause danach. Von 5 runter zählen. Die Leute wollen, dass Du erfolgreich bist. Wirklich. Oder gehst Du zu Meetings/Präsentation um Deine Lebenszeit mit dem Hören schlechter Vorträge zu vergeuden? Die Planungsphase Workflowtechnisch ist eine Mindmap bei allen drei Piloten schon einmal der etablierteste Ausgangspunkt. Besonders mit MindNode macht das natürlich noch einmal so viel Spaß und OPML-Dateien können dann von Keynote importiert. Das Skelett der Präsentation steht damit schon einmal. Sven haut auch noch OmniOutliner dazwischen, um so noch mehr Struktur reinzubringen. Da allerdings im letzten Test von ihm der Keynote Export nicht mehr funktioniert hat und Keynote ’14 (v6.2) sich so oder so beschwert, dass die Datei zu alt sei und man bitte erst mit Keynote ’09 das Machwerk öffnet, fordert er Andreas auf - notfalls mit Hand und Fuss - beim IdeasOnCanvas Team einen Keynote-Export-Knopf zu erkämpfen. Die OmniGroup hat uns in der Zwischenzeit per Tweet bestätigt, dass der Export noch nicht für die aktuelle Version von Keynote angepasst ist. Vorerst kann man sich aber mit diesem AppleScript behelfen. PowerPoint Das liebe PowerPoint ist bei Sven in 80% aller Fälle der “goldene Standard”, weil es eben immer noch das dominierende Präsentationsprogramm ist und somit gut für gemeinsames Arbeiten und Austauschen, auch über die Mac/Windows-Barriere hinweg, geeignet ist. Leider wird es heute nach Svens Aussage zu allem möglichen missbraucht, da Leute offensichtlich öfters vergessen, dass sie noch andere Programme installiert haben — z.B. Pages oder Word und dann am Ende weder Font noch Bilder integriert sind. Keynote nutz Sven natürlich lieber, aber eben nur für Präsentation, die entweder wirklich nur er selbst bearbeitet oder die als PDF geteilt werden müssen, bzw. für Side-Projects bestimmt sind. Was noch anzumerken bleibt: Der Keynote Export nach PowerPoint ist zwar sehr gut, aber nicht perfekt. Tipp-Exkurs mit Sven F. Auf das Publikum abstimmen und eine “Geschichte” erzählen (The Art of Storytelling) Bei jeder Präsentation geht es um das Publikum und nicht um den Presenter! Ego ablegen und sich genau überlecken was, bzw. welchen Aspekt das spezielle Publikum abgedeckt sehen möchte. Was “bewegt” es, was lässt es klar und was ist im wichtig oder scheißegal. Wie viel Vorwissen darf man annehmen? Warum mehr als 10-15 Slides selten funktionieren Aufmerksamskeitsspannen sind unglaublich gering. Wenn man die Leute nicht gleich in den ersten 5 Minuten, bzw. 3 Charts “hat” bekommt man sie meist nie. Eine (!) Aussage per Slide! Klar planen: Was ist die eine Sache, die ich möchte das die Zuhörer von diesem einen Slide mitnehmen? Machen alle Aussagen aneinander gereiht (sowie sie in der Präsentation sind) Sinn? Die “5x5x5” Regel 5 Slides in der Präsentation (ohne Titel/Ende), 5 Bullets per Slide, 5 Worte per Bullet. Bilder, Worte und so weiter Bilder sinnvoll nutzen. Copyrights beachten. Augen auf bei Diagrammen und Charts Gute Diagramme, Charts und Datenillustration sind unglaublich mächtig in Präsentationen. Schlechte hingegen führen schnell zu einem “Rathole” und unterminieren unter Umständen die gesamte Kredibilität. Kopierte Slides Am besten immer die eignen Slides verwenden. Jeder hat einen anderen Gedankengang und fokussiert eine andere Aussage, wenn er Slides erstellt. Wenn man dann einfach Slides zusammen kopiert ist meistens die Storyline und die Aussagen weg. Im schlimmsten Fall sieht man das Slides (auch rein optisch) aus anderer Hand stammen. Zum Thema verstecke Slides oder Backup-Slides In 95% der Fällen nie gebraucht. Weglassen, bzw. in separater Datei ablegen. Besser planen! Probelauf-Strategien Je nach Größe der Präsentation richtet Andreas seinen Vorbereitungsaufwand aus. Für die Barcampfreunde übt er wenn’s hochkommt ein, zwei Mal mit der Katze, für die Million-Dollar-Verträge geht’s intensiver zur Sache und die Freundin muss mehrfach den Gehörgang hinhalten. Sven übt am liebsten mit sich selbst und läuft dabei die zig Quadratmeter der Präsidentensuite im jeweiligen Grand Hotel wo er gerade die Zelte aufgeschlagen hat ab. Wie wichtig es ist, alles zu genüge geübt zu haben, zeigt Svens Beispiel als die Beamer-Birne nach 5-Minuten geplatzt ist und kein Ersatz auf die Schnelle da war: Blank und ohne Slides präsentieren. Das kann nur ein wahrer Podiumspilot. Tipp-Exkurs mit Patrick W. Keine Notizzettel - Augenkontakt und freies Reden Sobald du alles kannst, übe die Präsentation. Das ist nämlich eine andere Baustelle. Möglichst vor echtem Publikum. Lass dir Feedback geben. Mit dem Equipment vertraut machen, wenn möglich 1 Tag vorher proben ob alles geht Die Zuhörerschaft kennen und passendes Material aussuchen. Risikofreude abwägen. Pro Risiko sein, für mehr Attention. Und… Sich selber nicht zu ernst nehmen. Apropos: Das passende Material ist essentiell. Ein Bild kann mehr als Tausend Worte sagen und eine ganze Geschichte erzählen. Ein einprägsames Bild mit der passenden Erklärung bleibt dem Publikum auch leichter im Kopf hängen. Eine kohärente Geschichte erzählen. (siehe ↑) Kurz und klar, statt lang umschweifend und meist noch zu schnell alles erklären zu wollen. Meist ist es unnötig das Thema vorher ausgedehnt anzusagen. In der Uni trotzdem ganz hilfreich, vor allem bei den berühmten Kursen, wo man jede Stunde 2 Präsentationen hört und “das dann der ganze Kurs ist” (… ne Schande). Michael Lopp Exkurs Sven hat ein paar weitere Schmuckstücke aus dem Rands in Repose Fundus herausgefischt und annotiert. Diese wollen wir euch natürlich nicht vorenthalten. Out Loud Wie man eine mitnehmende Präsentation plant und übt erklärt Michael Loop Dinge laut vorsprechend üben — merkwürdig (zumindest am Anfang), macht aber einen Riesen Unterscheid Präsentation oder Rede? Vergleiche Steve Jobs’ Standford Rede mit einer Präsentation anlässlich einer Apple Keynote Komplette Planung in der Präsentationssoftware seiner Wahl stellt sicher, dass es eine Präsentation wird und kein Buch oder Artikel Für mehr Gedanken während der Planung und später die Präsentationsnotizen verwenden Einmal Disaster, bitte: Grobe Präsentations-Outline präsentieren. Man bekommt ein Gefühl für den Fluss (oder eben nicht), “hört” sich die Geschichte erzählen und entwickelt Vertrautheit mit Inhalte und Aussage Üben, durchgehen, üben: Ehefrau -oder mann, Freund oder Freundin, Kollege oder Kollegin oder notfalls ein Baum im Wald Reduzieren soweit es geht; Bilder statt Text-Slides wo es geht Stellen mit Publikumsinteraktion bewusst in den Fluss einplanen Teilnahme als Akzentuierung bestimmter Aussage der eignen Präsentation Handzeichen oder ähnliches müssen nicht immer sein, manchmal reicht auch eine provokative Frage, die jeder im Publikum für sich selbst im Kopf beantwortet (Lange Pause nach der Frage lassen) Regel: Das Publikum wird Dich immer überraschen Gib dem Publikum was zum Mitnehmen — es kann so einfach wie ein “Zusammenfassung”-Slide sein Keynote Kung-Fu I Keynote für optimale Arbeitsabläufe anpassen Raster und Hilfslineale richtig einstellen Was ist wo in den verschiedenen Paletten Slidedeck organisieren Übergänge zwischen einzelnen Slides Keynote Kung-Fu II Das richtige Theme auswählen Themes anpassen Outlinen, planen und strukturieren im Slide Navigator Design-Fallstricke im Umgang mit Master-Slides Fluss der Geschichte synchron mit Fluss der Slides Interaktive Navigationselemente auf den Slides Funktionen im Präsentationsmodus Persönlich soll es sein: “Ein Teil von Dir”, nicht ein Teil des Slides Große Teile der Artikel beziehen sich auf ältere Keynote Versionen, sind aber im wesentlichen — nach Anpassungen — auch für die aktuelle Keynote Version gültig. Sozi, Prezi, Brezel backen. Alles in den Präsentationskoffer packen. Keynote und Powerpoint sind veraltet. Nach Patrick’s Ansicht heißt es “Slideshows waren gestern”, denn mittlerweile ist die Zeit der “Zoomenden Präsentationen” angebrochen ist. Andreas führt auch sofort den Fachbegriff Kinetic Typography ein, der ihm als Videoprofi natürlich geläufig ist. Damit ist nach Patrick’s Meinung halt einfach mehr möglich… und vor allem schöner. Einwurf von nach der Sendung: Patrick hat das Internet natürlich sofort nach dem neuen Stichwort durchstreift. Was er festgestellt hat ist, dass die Animationen in der Tat eher in der Videobranche zu finden sind und für Präsentationen viel zu schnell, hektisch und reizüberflutend wirken. Kurz, keine Wunder erwarten, sondern selbst mit der sparsam editierenden Hand zu werke gehen. Falls ihr von Kinetic Typography oder Prezi noch nie etwas gehört habt, gibt’s jetzt eine kleine Einführung. Wie darf ich mir das vorstellen? Im Gegensatz zu traditionellen Slideshows, wird hier eine Art Poster angelegt. Bester Ausgangspunkt ist meiner Meinung nach eine Mindmap. Dann kann man sich überlegen wie man die einzelnen Punkte auf’s Post bringt und mit Grafiken und Typographie unterstreicht. Kurz: Es handelt sich um eine völlig freies, grenzenloses Layout. Wenn man so eine Präsentation abspielt, sorgen eine vordefinierte Serie an Transitionen, Zooms und Rotationen dafür, dass das nächste wichtige Element (also in Altdeutsch, die nächste Slide) in den Fokus rückt. Das wohl populärste unter diesen Nicht-nur-Slides Präsentationsprogrammen ist Prezi. Lasst mich das mal kurz vorstellen. Features 3D Zoom-Effekte bei der Bezahlversion von Prezi auch offline Collaborate in real-time Präsentation in Webseiten einbinden Online teilen Automatischer Sync von Präsentationen zum iPad/iPhone Nicht zuletzt: zig tausend Präsentationen online auf welche man zugreifen kann und welche man abändern kann für die eigenen Zwecke Das hört sich gut und spannend an. Ist es auch. Natürlich sollte man es mit den Drehungen nicht übertreiben, sonst wird den Zuschauer schlecht. Aber wie und warum man Effekte sparsam einsetzen sollte, dazu kommen wir noch später. Denn wenn man es übertreibt mit solchen grafik-orientierten Powertools, dann bleibt von der Präsentation nichts als seekranke Zuschauer übrig die von der Effekthascherei abgelenkt ihr zombifiziertes Dasein fristen. Das wollen wir nicht. Also, Apple Werbung noch einmal anschauen, schwarz-weiß und minimalistisch bleiben. Preis Wie bei GitHub: öffentlich = kostenlos. Da ist dann aber auch das Prezi-Logo mit drauf. Enjoy-Lizenz $4.92/Monat bzw. $59 pro Jahr Prezi-Logo entfernt kann von öffentlich auf privat gesetzt werden Für Studenten gibt es diese Variante kostenlos. Pro-Lizenz Das wichtigste Feature (ohne das ich Prezi nicht nutzen würde): Offline speichern. $13.25/Monat $159 pro Jahr Gruppenlizenzen für Unternehmen erhältlich Also bei uns am Campus geht das WLAN hin und wieder nicht. Deshalb würde ich mich nie auf eine reine Onlinelösung verlassen. Leider ist mir für die paar Präsentationen an der Uni der Preis für die Pro Version zu teuer, ABER… Die kostenlose Alternative: Sozi Vorab: Der Preis von “kostenlos” ist hier, dass es keine 1-2-3 Installation. Also… weiß Gott keine. Das ist richtig kompliziert bis alles mal läuft. Wenn es dann läuft ist es auch lange nicht so komfortabel wie Prezi. Inkscape installieren. (Freeware Version von Adobe Illustrator) Der etwas älteren Anleitung (für Mountain Lion) hier folgen und auch die verlinkten Kommentare lesen - ohne geht’s nicht. Das war zumindest mein Leidensweg. Dann habt ihr in ein Vektorprogramm in dem ihr mittels Sozi Rechtecke über eure wichtigen “Slides” bzw. Elemente ziehen könnt und einen Übergang von Element zu Element auswählt. Mittlerweile gibt es auch eine Extension für SVG-Edit. Ist vielleicht einfacher als der Inkscape weg. Keine Ahnung. Ihr seid da euch überlassen, denn ich bin froh, dass es rennt. Wenn es läuft, habe ihr den Wow-Factor auf eurer Seite. Die generierte SVG Datei läuft auch auf jedem modernen Browser (offline). Ihr seid somit kompatibel zu allem. Tipp: Es gibt viele Seiten die kostenlose Vektorgrafiken anbieten (z.B. vectezzy. Don’t overdo it. Für nicht so wichtige und kleinere Präsentationen gibt es mittlerweile ein paar sehr schöne Markdown Tools die wir euch auch noch kurz vorstellen werden. Ein Wort der Warnung Wie sich in der Show noch einmal ganz deutlich herauskristallisiert hat nach Andreas seiner Kritik, ist Prezi/Sozi/Wasauchimmer auch keine eierlegende Wollmilchsau und hat seinen Anwendungsbereich ganz klar eher im kreativeren Bereich bzw. überall dort wo man es gefahrlos auch mal optisch krachen lassen kann (… ohne es auch hier zu übertreiben). Jenseits von Keynote und PowerPoint Bei den vielen Flügen rund um die Welt hat Der Übercast natürlich mehr als nur die Standards kennengelernt. Hier eine kleine Auswahl nützlicher Helfer und Alternativen. Was tun, wenn die grafischen Mittel nicht ausreichen? Das fragt man sich ab und an. Unser Profi für’s bewegte Bild hat die Antwort haut bei den wichtigen Präsentationen auch mal voll auf die Wurst und schießt mit Motion und Final Cut auf die nichts-ahnende Zuhörerschaft die sich von seinen Screencasts (und iOS Screencasts für den App Store) verzücken lassen will. Besonders dankbar ist Andreas für Claquette, eine App die hochauflösende Bildschirmaufnahmen macht und diese sofort an Final Cut weiterreicht. Ansonsten tut’s Air Server auch. Zudem findet Andreas auch die klassische schwarze Slide ohne Alles mal ganz gut, um einen Punkt doppelt zu untermauern (

This is show # 13 for April 1st, 2014… No Joke! This is the first “rebranded” show, now called Podcast Help Desk. Today I'm going to tell you how I rebranded this show including the website address, RSS feed, iTunes listing and everything. Step by step. First thing I did is get the new domain name. PodcastHelpDesk.com. I use Godaddy to get my domains and host my websites, but you can do this part using any registrar and host I'm sure. I had podcastingtechcoach.com going for a year or so and wordpress, powerpress and all my other plugins were installed and configured. Instead of starting from scratch, I decided I would just re-use the site I had and re-name it. Once I got the domain name, I went into the hosting part of godaddy and pointed the new domain name to the same directory as PodcastingTechCoach.com. At this point you could have typed “podcastingtechcoach.com' or “podcasthelpdesk.com” and you would get to the same place. (once the change propagates) It's called domain forwarding in most hosting control panels. The next step I did was to install a plugin called “Static Feed”. I configured it to take my powerpress feed (/feed/podcast/) and make it an xml file called Podcast.xml and put it in the root directory. I then made a 301 redirect in my .htacess file. Example below: RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^feed/podcast/ http://podcasthelpdesk.com/podcast.xml [L,R=301] What this does is make sure that if anyone hits the old feed which was podcastingtechcoach.com/feed/podcast/, it forwards it to the new feed at podcast help desk. It also tells iTunes and anyone subscribed in other programs, that the feed is changed permanently and to change where they look for new episodes. Stitcher is a bit different. If your show is listed on stitcher, you need to go in and manually tell it about the change. Just login to your partner account and edit your listing. It's not too hard. Blubrry and Tech Podcast Network. Both of these will pick up the change sooner or later, but I would (and did) go in and update it manually. In my case, it took iTunes just 1 day to pick up the change. Your mileage may vary with itunes. I've seen them take up to 3 weeks to pickup a 301 redirect. I suppose they are getting better. After all that I went in and did the rest of the rebranding on the website. Changed the title, tagline graphics and colors. This would also be a good time to change the theme in wordpress if you wanted. But be careful! Some themes do not play well with podcasting so be prepared to check things out before pressing on. Other things to think about is if your show has Twitter and facebook accounts. You will want to start new ones or rename the ones you have. Since this show isn't really about social media, I will leave that one up to you. This show brought to you by Blubrry.com Media Hosting….

Tip of the week: This is more for listeners than for podcast producers. I'm sure most of you are listeners as well. Say you want to get a list of all the podcast feeds you listen to so you can subscribe on a new device or new podcast catching program. If you are using iTunes, just go to the podcasts area on your computer and right click on the title and select “Copy Podcast URL”. Then you can paste it into a doc or into your other program. If you want to get them all in an OPML format (Which most podcast catchers can use) Go to the View menu and make sure you have the sidebar on. Once it's on, right click on the word “podcasts” in the sidebar and click export. Then choose the format of the file you want. Save that to wherever you would like and you can email it to yourself so you can put it on your iphone, ipad, android tablet or phone. The OPML works with most podcast apps including the Apple P...

Published July 22, 2012 In this episode author Gena Philibert Ortega and I talk about her new book From the Family Kitchen: Discover your Food Heritage and Preserve Favorite Recipes. Who doesn't love yummy home cooking? There is a lot to be learned about our ancestors, and in particular those elusive female ancestors, through a study of our culinary history.  We'll be talking about the invaluable genealogical records that are so often over looked, ways that you can really dig in to your fabulous food family history, and I'm even going to share a recipe and utensil that our grandmother's use and that you can still use today to make super scrumptious treats for your family. (Video coming to the Genealogy Gems YouTube channel!)   NEWS: Speaking of grandmas, I finally found my awesome grandma in California in the 1940 census and it was a snap because the California index along with several other states on July 13, 2012 by Ancestry.  Grandma and Grandpa were just 3 months away from moving in to their first real home which they were in the process of having built, and from the birth of their first child, my mom.  FamilySearchFamilySearch continues to add records to the free familysearch.org website. They just announced that they have added the 1881 and 1891 Scotland Census Indexes and Millions More records for Brazil, China, Ecuador, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Other Countries.   Lisa Louise Cooke's Genealogy Gems website: We've got an entirely new website for you, and thanks again to all of you who have been writing in. I know we've had some hiccups along the way getting the Premium feed switched over, but that's up and running now, and let me remind you, Premium Members are now getting all 88 Premium Episodes published to date. In the past you would get the most recent 6 episodes and then a new one each month. But now, you have a wealth of episodes available to you.  I can't tell you how thrilled I am to be able to make all of the content available to you Premium Members, it's something I've wanted to do for a long time but the old site just couldn't handle it. is now a HUGE value – same price, at least for now - $29.95 gets you one whole year's access to all of those episodes. Donna wrote: “My question is how do I access the early premium episodes, I always listen to Genealogy Gems / Premium via iTunes?” Lisa's Answer: Sign in to your premium membership. From the menu go to Premium Episodes and there you will find instructions for updating your premium podcast feed.  It's important to delete your current premium feed in iTunes first and add the new feed. The need feed will download all the episodes for you and then bring you the new ones as they are published.   Mike wrote in to say: “The new website looks great.  Having recently redesigned one at work, I know how much time it can take.  I particularly appreciate the back catalog of premium podcasts and have started listening to them.  And I hope that your video on hard drive organization will finally motivate me to get electronically organized. Keep up the good work!” Lisa's Answer: Thank you very much Mike I really appreciate it! I am really tickled that the new site was Randy Seaver's Tuesday Tips on July 10, 2012 on his wonderful Genea-Musings blog which you will find at www.geneamusings.com Lisa Louise Cooke's Genealogy Gems website his Thank you Randy!   Life After iGoogle Follow up In Genealogy Gems podcast episode #136 I gave you a neat solution to the demise of iGoogle. As you know Google has announced it will be discontinuing iGoogle which is the way you can customize the Google homepage just for you, and here on the podcast we've talked many times about how to customize it specifically for genealogy research. Now while it won't go away until later in 2013, there's no time like the present to make a switch and Netvibes.com is a great alternative. So in our last episode I walked you through a special process for converting your tabs and your RSS feed gadgets to a new free Netvibes account to get you started in the transition.  And I also published a video at the Genealogy Gems YouTube channel to show it to you step by step. I've heard from many of you that you love the Netvibes solution: Nanby said: “Thanks for saving our iGoogle pages. I am going to work on your solution.” Lee wrote: “Looking forward to your help in converting from iGoogle, and LOVE that all the Premium podcasts are available.  Thank you thank you!” Kim commented on the Genealogy Gems blog:    “I glanced at NetVibes this weekend, but knew you would be addressing the issue!  I loved your comment, ".....this will be fun"!  You actually make it so easy for us to follow along and yes, even make it 'fun' :) Appreciate the tutorial and I'll be watching for more.” I you've been trying to get your genealogy vibe on by converting from iGoogle to Netvibes but you're having trouble (and I've heard from a couple of you) rest assured, it does work. However there are a few things I want to remind you about. First, this only converts your iGoogle tabs and your RSS gadgets such as gadgets you have for following blogs and podcasts. It can't convert gadgets that were made specifically for iGoogle because they are coded for iGoogle.  However, don't worry because there are lots of great Netvibe gadgets that can do many of the same things.   Also, in this conversion, it is MANDATORY that you follow the directions exactly!  It won't work otherwise. So for example, while it might seem like it should be easier to just drag your mouse over the code to highlight it for copying rather than right-clicking and using SELECT ALL which I tell you to do in the instructions, don't do it, because I found that it absolutely can make a difference.  I don't know what that is, I'm not a programmer, I just play one on TV, so that's why I really tried to carefully write out the instructions in the show notes, and demonstrate them in the video. I know that it may seem like you are doing too many extra steps by copying and creating an .XML document just to turn around and convert it and then copy it as a .TXT document, but every single step as I described it is critical to the conversion working properly. So if you're having trouble, I would recommend printing out the instructions from the show notes page, and doing each step and checking it off to be sure you don't miss anything. But please, if it gets frustrating, just know that you do not have to convert iGoogle.  I don't want you to get bogged down with the conversion and pull your hair out. Simply start a new Netvibes dashboard and add the feed manually by using copy and paste.  It will take a little longer to make the transition, but it's not that bad and it will save you from further headache. And stay tuned because I'll be doing additional videos showing you how to start a Netvibes page from scratch and then how to really jazz it up which is going to be really fun! Now I just want to answer a couple of specific listener questions in case it will help the rest of you.   Don wrote in to say that sometimes the Command bar wasn't visible in Internet Explorer, and he's absolutely right. Some folks will not have their Command bar activated so that might cause some confusion when you try to follow the conversion instructions. How to Activate Your IE Command Bar 1.      Right click on a bit of blank space in the browser bar area at the top 2.      a little popup menu will appear 3.      from there you can check mark Command 4.      the bar and the Page menu will become visible Leroy wrote: “I watched you podcast on Netvibes. Nice solution to the loss of iGoogle. Want to know if Netvibes runs on both Mac OS and Windows platforms? Thanks in advance for the assistance.” Lisa's Answer: Like iGoogle, Netvibes is on the "cloud" and resides on the Netvibes website.  This means it can be accessed by any computer, regardless of operating system. It also means you can access your homepage from any computer no matter where you are with your user name and password which makes it very flexible and portable. Julie from AZ wrote to say “Been trying to sign up for a basic account, and can't get pass the sign-up page.  Every user name imaginable seems to already be in us.  Just keep getting the same message.  Any suggestions?” Lisa's Answer: Netvibes has been around about as long as Google which is quite a while in technological terms, and I notice the same thing with Google when it comes to user names being used up. What I would recommend is to just get a little more unusual with the name you choose.    One idea that works also for passwords is to create a user name that stands for a sentence:   I Am Migrating To Netvibes From iGoogle  =   IAMTNFI (the first letter of each word)   Kay writes: “I listened to the most recent Episode 136 and was so excited! First of all, it's terrific news about the Premium service and the access to all the podcasts.  This has always been very frustrating to me - I listen while I walk and then most of the time I would forget to save the podcasts on my hard drive before they were gone forever.   So glad to hear there is a solution to iGoogle.  BUT the transfer isn't working.  When I attempt to convert the source file from my iGoogle page to the OPML format, I get one of two results.  Either nothing because the file is "too big" or I get an OPML file that's only about 8 lines long - this is a file that will not import into NetVibes dashboard.   I just get "0 files imported".   Lisa's Answer: I heard from a couple of you that you also got an error message like Kay did saying your iGoogle code was too big to convert, and you told me you have pretty big iGoogle pages. I have a pretty large iGoogle page with 12 tabs full of gadgets and I just went through the instructions again and it converted.  I don't know why that happens, and I can't seem to replicate the problem, so the best thing I can suggest is that you make a list of the iGoogle gadgets that you have – the ones that are not RSS feed gadgets – and then delete them before going through the conversion process. That should make the overall file smaller.  And then you will have a list of the kinds of gadgets you were using in iGoogle so that you can look for replacements in NetVibes.   And the "zero files" result is the same one I got when I was just highlighting and copying, or when I didn't save the code into an XML file first and then re-open it and copy it into the conversion box. I'm guessing with your know-how you might be doing some short cuts that just don't work in this case.   UPDATE: Genealogy Gems Toolbar has been discontinued   Reset your homepage – Janice is talking about the page that the little house button on your browser is set to.   How to Change Your Homepage in Firefox back to Google: 1.      Go up to the menu (Make sure your Menu bar is on and visible) and clicking TOOLS 2.      Select OPTIONS 3.      Select the GENERAL tab in the pop up window 4.      Paste http://www.google.com in the "Home Page" field 5.      Click OK 6.      That will reset your Home button on the Firefox browser back to Google.   Internet Explore: just click the little arrow next to the button and follow the menu prompts to reset it to http://www.google.com   John asked about another feature. “I recently reinstalled your toolbar on my IE9 browser.  I've found this to be a very useful tool.  However, I noticed a few things changed soon after adding the toolbar.  When I add a new tab in my browser it defaults to what I believe to be a Bing search page with your logo on it.  I miss my old New Tab page where I could click on several of my most used sites.  I'm not even sure what the default was prior to adding the toolbar.” Lisa's Answer: When you install the toolbar it will set the page you get when you click to open a new browser tab page, to a search page which shows a search box and a Genealogy Gems logo. If you don't want a search page on new tabs, you can change it back to the default page that shows your most recent pages as options to click when you open a new tab.   How to Reset New Browser Tabs: 1.      Click the wrench icon in the toolbar menu 2.      Click the ADDITIONAL SETTINGS 3.      Uncheck the box for "show a search box" for new tabs   Thanks to all of your who have installed the free Genealogy Gems Toolbar.

Published July 8, 2012 Everyone is concerned about Google pulling the plug on iGoogle, but in today's episode I have a fantastic solution for you. And you will find the companion video at my and as the video bonus content in the .  And the new has been launched! It's here! I promised you it was coming and it has. The brand new website is up and running at genealogygems.com and at lisalouisecooke.com. You'll find Lisa Louise Cooke's Genealogy Gems in both places. The old site was 5 years which is ancient in techie years, so it was time. Back in the Fall of 2011 I began laying the framework for the new site, well aware that the old one had become cluttered, and it wasn't keeping up with all the new versions of web browsers out there. Things were starting to not display properly. A few months later in March 2012 listener and Premium Member Simona wrote me to tell me she had noticed it too.  And she had some opinions about the magazine delivery nature of the podcast episodes.  The original model for the premium podcast was like a magazine. When you subscribe you get the last few episodes, and then each new episode as it was published.  After about 3 months the oldest episode would drop off and the new one would come on. There were a few reasons for this which included the capabilities of the old site. Here's what Simona had to say: “I downright LOVE your productions Lisa and think you are the sweetest and smartest. But I get frustrated and even -dare I say- annoyed with the shelf life limit of your premium podcasts. You see I very rarely hard-wire sync my idevices to my notebook pcs. So I end up missing more premium podcasts than I download and listen to.” OK, well I obviously completely agree with Simona on her comments on the website, and the email just helped support the decision I had made to invest in a new site. And I hope Simona and all of you are happy with all the changes and upgrades.   NEW SITE UPGRADES: Everything is on one site: The blog, the free episodes, Premium Membership, and our brand new store. The free iTunes podcast feed and the Premium feeds are both functioning now. Premium Membership includes ALL past episodes, and continued access to those episodes while you are a member. But the big news for Premium members is that premium membership is no longer a magazine subscription model. I've built a site that is set up to hold all the gems I've created for you over the last 5 years, and the many more years to come.  Yep, right now we are on Premium episode #88 and ALL 88 episodes are available to you as part of your premium membership.  What we are creating for you is a growing catalogue of gems and tutorials and genealogy entertainment that you can tap into when you want it.  And Genealogy Gems Premium Membership gives you access to all of it!  And of course each month we are adding new premium episodes and videos so that catalogue will just keep growing and growing. You know sometimes a gem or topic isn't what you need this week, but it's exactly right for what you want to do 2 months from now.  Now you can sign in to your membership and grab the gems you need when you need them. And I hope you are as excited about the amount and accessibility of content as I am! Now Simona brought up a question about accessing the premium episodes and downloading them to her devices.  Here's the thing – as I've said many times before iTunes doesn't support premium membership sites, so we have had to custom build a feed for you so that at least you can add your premium content through iTunes. But for now that still means plugging in your iPod. Technology is moving quickly though and we are constantly searching for ways to make that process easier, and unfortunately we have to rely on Apple to help make that possible. I'm really proud that we have managed to build a way to deliver premium content to you through iTunes and I'll let you know if and when we develop a method for wireless download, as is available for the free podcast through our Genealogy Gems App (available in the iTunes app store and at Amazon for Android.) And I'm very happy to say that the response to the new website has been 100% positive. I had braced myself for some folks who didn't want change, but so far not a one. You were ready for an upgrade as much as I was. Here's what just some of you had to say: Robin in Ohio says: “Your new web page is AWESOME!  Love the colors, layout and info. All your Gems are sooooo helpful, upbeat and truly some great genealogy fun!!!  I look forward to listening to your podcast while riding my bike and gardening. You are such a genealogy-go-getter and amazing example to me.    Thanks for sharing so many GenGems and some of your life events along the way.  It makes the person behind the cyber voice so pleasantly real.  Thanks for sharing your talents with me” Sue in Nevada says “What a drastic difference!  It is so neat, concise, and user-friendly.  Can't wait till it is fully up and running.  It was worth the wait....” Sue in Nevada Teri says: “Wow. Really nice look. Makes you a destination site!” Christine commented on The Genealogy Gems Podcast Facebook Fan Page: "I just "peeked"--1000% improvement!  Not only is it more user-friendly, the design & colors are more "you" I'm ecstatic that you love the site and I hope that those of you listening who have been listening on your mobile device and maybe haven't stopped by the website in a while drop in and see what Robin, Sue, Teri and Christine are raving about.    Facebook Fan Page Attention all Facebook users! There's been an upsetting development in the way that site is run, and the unfortunate result is that many of you are no longer receiving Venice's posts. What they've done affects all fan pages.  It used to be that whenever I posted a status update it would send it out to every single person who is subscribed to the Genealogy Gems page. Well, no longer. Now it tells us, underneath every post what percentage of subscribers it has actually sent that post out to. And usually that number is right around the 25% mark. Which means that the site deliberately and arbitrarily chose 75% of you to not receive it. But here's the rub: On every single individual post, it now offers us a "Promote" option, where we can pay them money to increase the number of fans who will receive that specific post. To get the note/video/picture/song to show up on the walls of 100% of our Facebook fans, it could cost us around $50. Not as a one-time payment, but rather PER POST. But there is something you can do.  Follow these instructions to guarantee that you'll receive all of our subsequent updates: 1) Sign into Facebook. 2) Go to: 3) Hover your cursor over the "Liked" box. 4) Put a checkmark next to the words "Show in News Feed." I'm sorry for the inconvenience and really appreciate your support!   RIP iGoogle From Barbara: “Hi Lisa, Greetings from a Canadian Premium Podcast listener. I got a notification on my iGoogle home page today and was gobsmacked (my ancestors were British) to see that they are discontinuing iGoogle on the 1st of November next year.  This seems really strange, given that they just released the new update a short time ago, however that's Google for you.  If you don't like what they're doing today, wait awhile – they'll be doing something new by tomorrow.  This is one change that's going to be rather sad for me.  I've enjoyed my iGoogle home page.  I sure hope they have something exciting and new coming to make up for this.” From Linda: “I just looked on my iGoogle home page, and it says iGoogle will not be available after November 1, 2013? (--happens to also be my birthday, so an easy date to remember, for me at least) What?!?!? I have got it all set up, thanks in part to you, and now it is going away...it just ain't fair. You are going to need a new webinar telling us what to do now, cause I don't have any idea how to make it work in Chrome! There is life after iGoogle, and I have a solution for you!   GEM: Life After iGoogle In this gem we are going to look at Life After iGoogle. It's pretty challenging to stay organized online isn't it? It seems like every day something new is happening, and it can take some superhero powers to stay up to date while you're still working on today's to do list. That's why iGoogle was such a gem!  In webinars, presentations, my book The Genealogist's Google Toolbox and as part of Premium Membership I have taught thousands of you   how to convert iGoogle into your personal genealogy homepage. We added gadgets that could accomplish the tasks you needed to get done, then expanded with tabs, and even dressed it all up with custom themes. And I've heard from so many of you have it revolutionized your online computing and research experience. However, in 2012 as we here in the U.S. were celebrating Independence Day and the freedom we enjoy, Google very quietly announced that it was doing away with iGoogle. The online freedom we were so happily enjoying came to a screeching halt. Ouch! Now even though I'm known as the Google Guru, first and foremost, I see my role as genealogy gems goddess. And that means that I am primarily focused on bringing you the best gems, not just Google gems.  So after a good 5 minute mourning session by the iGoogle gravesite, I got to work on a new gem that would meet all of our homepage needs, and dare I say even surpass iGoogle in some areas. And don't worry, what I've come up with isn't going to force you to start from scratch. We're going to move much of your iGoogle content to a brand spanking new genealogy homepage and then add lots of gems to it. Today I'm very happy to introduce you to Yep, there is life after iGoogle.  And once you get into the Netvibes vibe you're going be doing the genealogy happy dance.  So let's get started. Guess what: Netvibes has been around as long as iGoogle! Both were launched in 2005. But here's the thing, Google never figured out how to make money with iGoogle, and that plays a huge role in why it's going away. However, the Netvibes team discovered early on that a personal dashboard just wasn't all that conducive to a bunch of advertising to the pay the bills, and so they expanded their business model to provide expanded premium products to businesses at a price, that allows them to continue to provide the free service to their individual users. The fact that they have figured out how to make their business profitable means that there's a much better chance that the Netvibes dashboard will be around for a while. And believe me, with the demise of iGoogle Netvibes has already seen a bump in users, and I predict that's about to increase dramatically. The first thing we need to do is import your existing iGoogle content into Net Vibes. And if you don't have an iGoogle page, cool – it just saves you from having to do this step, but hang in there because you are definitely going to want to set up a Netvibes genealogy dashboard with the rest of us which we will do in just a minute. PLEASE NOTE: Follow these instructions EXACTLY. Any deviation will cause it not to work. And be sure to use Internet Explorer NOT Firefox for this procedure. 1.      Log in to a Google account. 2.      Go to this page: 3.      In your IE browser menu click on PAGE (in the COMMAND bar, which if it is not showing you will need to activate)    select SAVE AS and name the file iGoogle_code.xml (save it as an XML file to your computer's hard drive) 4.      Open the XML file that you just saved 5.      Right click on the page and select SELECT ALL and then copy right-clicking and selecting COPY 6.      Go to this page: Scroll down until you see a box 7.      Paste the code in the first box 8.      Click the CONVERT TO OPML button 9.      Copy the converted code 10.  Open a new document in Notepad 11.  Paste the code on the page 12.  Save the file: From the menu select File – SAVE AS and name the file to_netvibes.txt (You are just going to save it as a text file) 13.  Go to 14.  Sign up for a free BASIC account and select the Default layout. 15.  On the starting dashboard click ADD CONTENT in the upper left had corner of the page. 16.  Click ADD A FEED (the orange RSS button) 17.  Under the feedback next to OPML: click IMPORT 18.  Browse your computer and select to the to_netvibes.txt file 19.  Click the IMPORT button 20.  This will import any tabs and RSS feeds that you had in iGoogle This looks a LOT like iGoogle don't you think? Making this move is going to be a breeze because the two services are SO much a like! Now of course, not all of the iGoogle gadgets converted. That's because they are iGoogle gadgets. You're going to have to locate new gadgets from Netvibes. I'm going to set you up with some of the most important gadgets you'll need.  And you can bet I'll be covering more customized gems in upcoming Genealogy Gems Premium episodes.  Under Add Content there are a couple of different areas where you can get gadgets, which are called Widgets in Netvibes.  In addition to using the search box, you can browse Categories, select from  Essential Widgets, and you can add more RSS feeds which you'll use to follow podcasts, blogs, and other types of syndicated content. Let's start by deleting the iGoogle gadgets that didn't convert properly. Just click the little X button in the upper right corner of the widget just like you would have in iGoogle. Essential Widgets are your desktop tools. Lisa suggests: To do Webnotes MailWizard Bookmarks Facebook Twitter Before we go any further, let's clean up and organize a bit.  Moving widgets around is super easy. Click the title bar of the widget, drag, and drop. And there you have it, in just a few minutes time you've made the dreaded move! Stay tuned because I have a LOT more great stuff for you to do to get your genealogy vibe on.    GEM: Genealogy Gems Song by Mike Steward ArtistSignal is a music contest: Click to Vote for Michael's music.
