IBM Publishes Employee Podcasting Guidelines

Podcasting News reports that IBM has announced an internal initiative for employees to publish podcasts. As part of this initiative, they've expanded their corporate guidelines to cover podcast-specific issues. These include:

* Do not podcast IBM Confidential material.    
* Be mindful not only of what you say, but how you say it.
* Protect your privacy and the privacy of others.
* Set the bar as high as you can for audio production and content quality.
* There may be some invitations to participate in non-IBM podcasts that warrant IBM Communications' involvement.

* Before creating a podcast, listen to some.

You can find the full text of the updated guidelines here. The part on podcasting flows at the end.
