“The Jeffio Show” will be a short-format video podcast (under 5 minutes) featuring 3-4 guests per episode all answering the same 2-3 questions with responses taking no longer than 30 seconds for each response. I’ll introduce the episode but we’ll focus mainly on the people I interview.

This format should be quick and concise with little fluff, just-the-facts kind of thing. Easy for viewers/listeners to get tidbits of advice from tech professionals and other entrepreneurs without having to invest with a huge time commitment.

1. How do you find things to write about so you’re not just blogging for the sake of blogging?

I’m going to try and sort out the technical details on how I’m going to put this together. I’ve been having fun with wireless lapel mics, video cameras, final cut pro and iMovie.

Here’s a video of me testing microphones:
