TPN is gearing up to get you exposed on the floor and in our broadcast booth at CES 2011

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010
Psst, can you keep a secret? No? Excellent because we want to shout out to the world that in 126 short days the TechPodcasts Network team will not only be in the thick of the masses covering all the great gear at the Consumer Electronics Show, we’ll also have a live broadcast booth on site! The opportunities this offers our consumers and advertisers are boundless!

Millions of consumers have followed the Tech Podcasts Network coverage of the Consumer Electronics Show the past five years because we feature real tech personalities in the thick of the event – jostling among the crowds – seeking extraordinary, innovative and unusual products. New this year we will stream more than 35 hours of coverage of the show from a prime location overlooking the show! TPN is a centrally located media community that provides the latest technology information.

What this means for you: The past four years, TPN has produced more than 600 CES on-floor video interviews, reaching and average of 12 million unique viewers each year. If you’re a consumer, we’ll keep it live as we sort through all the rest to find you the very best. If you’re an advertiser, you can reach tech savvy consumers both throughout the course of the show and after the show through web / new media distribution of the content with your message . . .  even if your company is not exhibiting at CES 2011.

Look what we’ve done: In 2010 by invitation of NBC Universal we produced two live streaming events on their main stage. During those one-hour events we interviewed 10 separate companies and had a live active audience of more than 10,000 viewers. See the recorded coverage here http://bit.ly/nbcuni1 , http://bit.ly/nbcunib.

So get ready to be exposed! If you’re a consumer, hold tight. These next four months will fly by. If you’re an advertiser who wants to know more, give RawVoice CEO Todd Cochrane a holler (or an email) at 808-741-4923 or ceo@rawvoice.com.

RawVoice is proud to be a gold sponsor of the always entertaining, engaging and enlightening WordCamp / PodCamp Ohio! We’ll also be exhibiting and presenting at the Saturday, June 19, event.

Look for Angelo Mandato and Michael Dell in our booth near the entrance at the Ohio State University Mendenhall Laboratory. We’ll have a few Blubrry T-shirts to give away along with our show notepads. And you know what else is great? It’s free! (Though parking at the OSU Union Garage is $3 per exit.)

In addition to the booth time, Angelo will be presenting a session on “Podcasting with WordPress.”

Connecting with and sharing ideas with new and old friends are some of our favorite things to do, so we hope to see you there! Haven’t registered yet? You can do it right now!

RawVoice Statistics System Update

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

If you’ve looked at your RawVoice Statistics (PodcasterNews, TechPodcasts and Blubrry Statistics) over the weekend you may have seen some changes and additions. We are in the process of adding additional functionality for paid users. Influenced by Google’s model of providing free and paid services, we will continue to provide free statistics for podcasters who are members of our communities (PodcasterNews, TechPodcasts and Blubrry) and will soon offer a Premium service for those who require advanced features and branding capabilities.

The update to the RawVoice Statistics over this weekend incorporates many improvements to the system. By popular request, the drop down to select from monthly or overall reports has been ordered with the latest date first. The pie charts are now displayed using flash which include roll over tips with percentages. We are now detecting AppleTV in the clients section of the reports.

As of April 1st, user agents that are recognized as web crawlers or web bots are no longer included in the general reports. We are currently working on an audit screen to display these metrics separately.

The Premium service will be available soon. Please keep an eye on this blog for an official announcement.

Subscribe Sidebar WordPress Plugin

Saturday, March 22nd, 2008

Subscribe Sidebar Wordress PluginRawVoice is pleased to announce the Subscribe Sidebar WordPress plugin.

The Subscribe Sidebar plugin creates a uniform list of the most common subscribe links with icons to display in a blog’s sidebar. The plugin may be added to the sidebar by either utilizing the dynamic widgets sidebar feature or adding a few lines of code to your theme’s sidebar template. Configurable options include links for RSS 2.0, Atom, Podpress podcast Feed, add to Google Reader/Homepage, add to My Yahoo, add to iTunes, add to Zune and follow on Twitter.

The plugin was inspired by our Subscribe & Share sidebar found in the RawVoice Generator‘s program pages. RawVoice CEO Todd Cochrane wanted the same easy to find and recongize functionality of the subscribe links found on our Blubrry, TechPodcasts and PodcasterNews properties for our WordPress blogs. My (Angelo’s) answer, the Subscribe Sidebar plugin.

Unlike our Subscribe & Share list found in the RawVoice Generator, the Subscribe Sidebar plugin does not contain any share links. If you are looking for a WordPress plugin that includes this functionality, please check out Alex King’s Share This plugin.

Please let us know if you have any code improvements, suggestions, comments or thoughts.
