ITauthor podcast #29 – Twitter, Facebook and moving help from RoboHelp to Flare

Play Download media

The voices in this podcast belong to: Graham Campbell and Alistair Christie.

This time round – recorded over Skype – Graham and I discuss:

  • Migrating online help projects from RoboHelp to Madcap Flare
  • How I use twitter and why Graham doesn’t
  • Integration of social media – for example, information flowing from your blog to twitter to Facebook
  • The death of blogging?
  • Hard times for ITauthor’s stats
  • Geoff Pullum, Geno Washington and the Ram Jam Band 

This is the photo I mentioned of Geoff Pullum (who was calling himself Jeff Wright – bottom left) with Geno Washington and other members of the Ram Jam Band.

I hadn’t realised, until scouting around the internet to find this picture, that Geno Washington and The Ram Jam Band had two of the biggest selling UK albums of the sixties. Hand Clappin, Foot Stompin, Funky Butt Live was in the album charts for 48 weeks during 1966 and was only out-sold by The Sound of Music and Bridge over Troubled Water.
