Who would you like to hear podcast?

Ok, I have done a good few podcasts at this stage and I can honestly say I am really enjoying the interview type podcasts and the feedback to them has been overwhelmingly positive (of course, I realise that is far more to do with the interviewees than anything I bring to the table!).

This is a format I will be doing a lot more of and I already have another couple of interviewees lined up. However, before going too much further down this line, is there anyone you’d particularly like to hear interviewed? In all cases, when an interview is coming up, I will allow people to submit questions that I will subsequently put to the interviewee.

So, who would you like to hear interviewed and what would you like me to ask them?

    A lot would depend on who you have access to.

    Absolutely Michele - but if someone asks for someone I don’t currently have access to, I can always put a question out there - “does anyone know how best to contact…?”

    Won’t always work, but no harm trying!

    I know, but if someone asked for George Bush you wouldn’t stand much chance of getting it ….

    True enough Michele, and similarly for the Pope, Khofi Annan, Nelson Mandela, etc. but then an IT-related podcast isn’t really something they’d have much relevant to contribute to, is it?

    I’m presuming the suggestions will be reasonably sane and on-topic.

    Aim high aim high. If you never ask you’ll never know. How about Noel Dempsey? :)

    Now you are contradicting yourself Damien - I thought you wanted me to aim high ;-)

    Meow.

    I’d love to hear you interview Henry Jenkins from MIT whose work illustrates the way fan culture kicked off a lot of the digital formations of digital culture and uses innovative IT in his own courses. (My students were very interested with Jenkins’ work in my course on participatory culture.)

    Nicolas Negroponte - founder of Wired, MIT Media Lab and now the $100 laptop project

    Some Irish tech/business people would be nice too!

    Tama - that’s an interesting suggestion, thanks, I’ll certainly look into getting Henry.

    Ed, wow! Now that’s thinking big, I like it. I’ll have to see if we can pull that one off.
