Reach Out And Touch Someone – Daniele Rossi

Only a few more days to the first ever PodCamp in London Ontario.  One of the presenters this weekend is Daniele Rossi.

Hi there!

I’m Daniele Rossi. But you can call me Danny. I must apologize for the cheesy title of my session at PodCamp London which is “Reach Out And Touch Someone”. *cough* I haven’t thought of a better title *cough*

It’s no surprise that I got into podcasting because I was one of those kids in the 80s who was always recording himself and his friends and cousins. So when podcasting came along in the 00s, it was a natural for me to jump in and start up a podcast of my own. In fact, I was kinda sorta podcasting in 1998 when I emailed Real Audio files of my ramblings to my friend in Rome. But that’s another story.

Anyhoo, I didn’t expect what I’d come to learn from podcasting when I got into it. I realized that with the social media tools we have today… wait for it… WE HAVE THE AWESOME ABILITY OF (positively) CHANGING LIVES NO MATTER WHERE ON THE PLANET OUR LISTENERS MAY BE! YEAH!

Using my podcast as a case study, I’ll show how I’m using tools like podcasting and Twitter to help my fellow peeps accept their stuttering (forgot to mention that my podcast is about stuttering; http://www.stutteringiscool.com) and kick major gluteus maximus! BOOYEAH!
