  • My Podcast Journey Week 10

    Week 10 already and as I write this, I am preparing to launch the website for ‘The Diary of a Digital Nobody’. All previous 9 weeks of both My 2022 Diary and My Podcast Journey have been loaded, plus other posts I’ve added to the P2 site. It has taken a while, but I now…

  • My Podcast Journey Week 9

    March already, my 9th week, but I do feel as if I am making progress. I’ve just created a new website on WordPress using the free option. Maximo Secrets is at the Premium level and has plenty of space remaining. I can access these two sites and the Podcasting Beginners Course from the same login.…

  • Your Second Honest Opinion?

    As you may recall I am splitting my podcast into two, Maximo Bite Size which is work related, and The Diary of a Digital Nobody, which is non-work related. Therefore, it is time for some honest feedback on my podcast logo and I’m still accepting four letter words. The Diary of a Digital Nobody is…

  • My Podcast Journey Week 8

    This week I’ve updated my Authors page on Maximo Secrets, and added a new photo, oh dear, I’ve suddenly got 8 years older. I’ve added the three most recent IBM badges that will indicate credibility and will swap in the IBM Champions 2022 badge when it is issued. We are developing a similar page for…

  • My Podcast Journey Week 7

    Seven weeks already and I still haven’t finalised my podcast approach. I’ve got more ideas, but these need fleshing out. Fortunately, I can justify spending some time during work time for one of these, as I was recently given it as an objective for 2022, not the podcast, but the content that I can easily…

  • My First Zoom Calls

    I cannot recollect ever being on a zoom call, and we rarely use Google Meet at work. Most of the verbal communication is via Slack and it isn’t recorded, and so, I have no idea what my voice sounds like. Being honest, I don’t speak to too many people in the periods I work from…

  • My Podcast Journey Week 6

    During last week I published my podcasting journey to date, five posts, and now I need to start preparing for the Week 6 post. After a couple of false starts, I have managed to record my first Zoom call. I just assumed that the mic and speaker settings for a Mac would be used by…

  • My Podcast Journey Week 5

    At the start of the week, the nagging doubt got louder. Why am I doing a podcast, and what’s in it for me? I currently write about Maximo most of the day, so why do I want to spend more time on this in the evenings and weekends, whether writing or recording, and I can’t/won’t…

  • My Podcast Journey Week 4

    January has almost disappeared, and so has my first month learning about podcasting. It looks as if Richard’s – Goals for the Week – email will be a regular Monday occurrence. Dipped out from replying. My diary has the list of goals for 2022, and goals for January, and I write at the top of…

  • Your Honest Opinion?

    Sorry Richard, but I had to have a go at my Podcast Logo, the next few episodes of your podcast will have to wait. I downloaded Canva (its free), searched for a template with the word Podcast, and a few minutes later, voila! Now this is where I could do with some honest feedback, and…
