New name & url for this blog

I began the New Media Musings blog in May 2001, and have kept at it almost every day for the past 5 1/2 years. That won't change.

What will change is the name and url of the blog. As of today, it's now the Social Media Podcast & Blog, at Socialmedia.biz. The new name signals what has been evident over the past couple of years: I'm writing a lot about grassroots media/citizen media, social networks, user-created content, home-brew video and mobile technologies, and less about the news industry. It also signals that this will be a rich media effort, with video podcasts and an occasional audio podcast sprinkled in with the text posts and photos.

I just turned on domain forwarding for this domain. All the archives will remain intact, so the thousands of links people have made to my posts over the years will still work. In addition, TypePad's "export" feature let me export all of my posts to Socialmedia.biz, so you can browse and search past posts there as well. See you at Socialmedia.biz!
