Talking about grammar

In this week’s podcast, we focus on grammar. Yes, you read that correctly. Grammar. Aaron interviews Mignon Fogarty, a.k.a. Grammar Girl, who brings fun to an often dry subject.

As a side note, we are experimenting with the way we record podcasts, so the audio may be less than perfect. It’s something that we’re working on.

In this podcast, we discuss grammar, the impact of Web 2.0 on grammar, podcasting, and new media vs traditional media. Mignon’s Grammar Girl podcast is a great example of how to “discover an audience” through podcasting and I encourage readers who are thinking about starting their own podcast to do so.
