Has incredible insight on the use of technology in libraries.  Seth Godin  is a great speaker and has good insight on marketing, new media and today's culture.

    Episode 7: SUNYLA Annual Conference Confab

    Better late than never! I apologize, especially to the participants about the lateness of getting this podcast up. It was recorded in June, but took me into July to post it. A small group of instruction librarians gathered one evening during the recent  SUNYLA Annual Conference (several weeks ago) in SUNY Plattsburgh to discuss any and all things conference-y or instruction-y. I started the recording in mid-discussion, so please forgive the confusing start. A more formal introduction is buried a couple minutes into the recording.
