First up, what's a podcast? Here's one of the easiest definitions I could find...
"a Web-based audio broadcast via an RSS feed, accessed by subscription over the Internet"
Basically, it's like an online radio show that you subscribe to over the internet. Sort of like TiVo for the internet...
Anyways, I'd like to put together our own podcast here at the library and I'm looking for some teens to help me out. For each episode, we'll be talking about new books, movies, and music that you're currently into. You don't need to know how to create a podcast...we'll learn together.
If you're interested, send me an email mailto:justinh@cmclibrary.org or just leave a comment on this blog...
More on this to come!

This comment comes to you in two parts!
Part One. I think a Podcast would be cool and I would help out.
Part Two. Along with book reviews I think some should do blurbs on the book. A blurb is ten words summing up the book in your opinion. It's really easy. It's the things that authors do for each other and put on the cover of their books.
(The Nerdfighters do a blurbing book club but Hank and John hasn't give out a new book yet.)
And for you, a two part reply!
I. I'm going to be messing around with the podcast stuff next week and after that I'll get back to you on creating our first episode of the Cape May County Library Teen Zone Podcast (we need a better name for that...)
II. Wanna come up with some blurbs for our blog? Send them my way at any time and I'll post them on the library blog...
I would like to help with the podcast, but my computer's really slow and i'm not good with that stuff...maybe i could do something with lauren or george's help once in a while? or whatever...i think i dont unerstand the whole thing realy well anyway.
We'd be making the podcasts at the library, so we wouldn't really have to worry about that. We have a Mac at the library that's really easy to use when it comes to creating podcasts. All you'd have to do is show up and talk about stuff!
Argh!! Why didn't you come to the library earlier? This project sounds so awesome! I'm jealous of everyone who can participate and doesnt have to go to stupid europe. ungf
Are you going to be back in NJ after the summer? Sorry about not being at the library earlier...I just moved to NJ on May 13th.
Ooh! That sounds awesome! I'd love to help!!!
Great...I'd love to have your help. Stop in the library any time I'm here (Mondays 130-9, Tuesday-Friday 830-430) and we'll talk.
