Thanks, Gene. Wouldn't dream of doing it any other way . I want as many people as possible to discover the show!

The Paracast would benefit from doing link exchanges I think. There's a lot of other radio shows out there that might be interested. This would bring in more people. I can contact some other shows and ask around if you want Gene. They'll want a link back to their site most likely though.

To a degree, perhaps. But we might just be reaching part of the same audience all over again. And too many banners on a site is off-putting.

We do limited exchanges, however.

I had Darkness on the Edge of Town in mind. They seem to have a huge audience and they've linked up with big sites like Ghost Hunters. A lot of people interested in the paranormal that don't know of this show could come over. Plus, their sponsors might see you there, and become interested.

I'm not a twitter user, but I have a friend who is and he swears it's a great way to communicate and broadcast his blog business. Even large companies have employees watching and participating.

Saw a recent story where a woman complained about her cable company's not being able to fix her cable line (in which her phone and computer were connected as well as TV) for several days. A rep from her cable company saw the complaint on twitter and had her cable line repaired the next day. That's just one story out of many from what I hear so twitter and new services like it are in touch with a large population.

I don't have the time, but if someone is interested, plugging The Paracast might get a lot of attention, hopefully from advertisers too???

NIce! I just started a blog and will do the same when I get a chance (assuming google blogs allows you to do that!)

Hi everyone,

Due to other "irons in the fire" and the usual personal distractions, I'm looking to pass on the MySpace account to someone with more time than I. You can message me here or send me an email to theparacastonmyspace@gmail.com and if Gene approves I'll set you up with the username & passwords for not only the MySpace account but for the Gmail and Photobucket ones I created to go along with it.

So what are those irons? I've been setting up to do my own podcasts, yeah that's with an "s" among other things associated with that and in the shell of a nut: I've only recently nearly fully recovered from foot surgery and returning to the land of the working plus other minute time consuming & boring details. Ha-Ha!

Thanx and I hope that someone can make a better go at it too once they assume the responsibility since I'm not a HTML coder or any kind of expert in that field.

[Aaron LeClair]

You or Gene send me a PM with what all would be expected of me and I'll consider it.

I'm not into html either though. From what all I've seen done at MS without it, I don't think it's needed though. Up to Gene.

Aaron, go ahead and work with our friend Phantasm on this and let me see what you come up with.
