This is the beginning of a new series here on Careers in New Media/New Media Interchange — New Media Gear. I started collecting information for this series by posting a question in the Facebook Podcasting Community Group — “What equipment to you use?” I know that I like to know what others are using — and finding useful — in their New Media work and ways that it might make my work a bit easier. Over the next several weeks I will highlight a podcaster in each post and let your know what equipment they find useful and provide links to where you can pick it up yourself. — Douglas
New Media Gear 001: Douglas E. Welch – Career Opportunities Podcast
I figured I might as well start out with my own equipment in this series, as old as it might be. As a wise person once said, “if it isn’t’ broke, don’t fix it!” My equipment works well for what I do and while I might be looking for an upgrade here and there, my gear is adequate for now.
If you have any questions about my equipment, please drop them in the comments.
You can hear and see this equipment at work in my podcasts My Word, A Gardener’s Notebook, Career Opportunities, Careers in New Media and TechnologyIQ at DouglasEWelch.com
