Arrived in Singapore last night. Straight to NTU and the NEC where I am putting up. Prepared some additional materials for Tuesday’s Web 2.0 workshops. The flight was fine.

I am conducting Web 2.0 and social networking workshops at the Centre for Educational Development within Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, next week and I have been updating my Web 2.0 Workshop pages. I created new documents for Google Reader, Twitter and Jaiku.

I am so looking forward to these workshops! Catching up with former colleagues and friends in Singapore. Brilliant!

This evening I did some additional work updating my Podcast Workshop page. I created a new document that illustrates how easy it is to create vodcast video using Quicktime. That document, in tandem with this one concerned with Podcast Maker is all you need to create a podcast or vodcast on the Macintosh. Quicktime is just as effective as creating simple audio recordings as well.

The NavCon conference is on this week and I have been updating my Podcast Workshop pages. I modified my presentation and created new documents for GarageBand, Podcast Maker and ProfCast. I also created a detailed document concerned with audio settings on the Macintosh.

This evening I tested four different methods for obtaining digital audio for podcasting this afternoon and I thought it would be worthwhile to simply publish the results. I used the following devices to record audio on my MacBook Pro.

Logitech Headset
Small stereo microphone
Lapel microphone
MacBook Pro built in microphone

You can see the equipment and hear the results here on my Podcast workshop page. Scroll down the page.
