Listener Spotlight
Would you like to be featured in the Listener Spotlight segment of a future episode of The Community Admin Show? Do you manage at least one family friendly community with at least 10,000 posts of its own? Do you have headphones, a mic, Skype (a free instant messaging/VoIP program) and a high speed internet connection? If you have all of that, please e-mail me with your real name (first and last, no aliases please) and your website. If I decide that you qualify, I will place you in a pool with other listeners who write in. When I decide to do a Listener Spotlight, I will randomly draw from this pool and contact the people who are drawn.
If you do not get contacted, please do not be disappointed or become frustrated. Do not assume that you will be contacted just because you have e-mailed in. In any case, I appreciate you taking the time to write in.
Questions, Feedback, etc.
If you have any questions about community management that you would like answered on the show or you have a suggestion for a guest or questions that I should ask my guests, please e-mail me. By e-mailing me, you are giving me the right to read your e-mail on the air and mention your name and website unless you specifically tell me otherwise.
Thank you for listening.

I liked how you explained how you think of, or create new websites. That’s inspired me a bit, thanks Patrick. :)

I can tell you were reading a script. I think it is good form to have a basic outline, and sometimes having a script is good too.
However, *because* I could tell you were reading, I think it has failed you.
One way to diminish this is by not having so much details in your podcast. We are intelligent adults, mostly, who are very much able to fill in the gaps.
The content was good, so that is always a big plus in my book. This was the first podcast I have heard from your show, and hopefully won’t be the last.
Regards,
David
