I've found it's hard to find interesting users without good tags, though.

I can't believe I wasn't following those already :O

thenewgreen  ·  4347 days ago  ·  link  ·  

More important than following "those" is following "those that use them" imo.

True, but following the tags is the best way to catch those who use the tag for the first time.

Valid point, but now if you are interested in a specific tag, just type #nameoftag in the search bar and you will get all of the posts from that specific tag. Hope that helps s_s.

Thanks. I completely overlooked that in mks post. Once in a while I will be searching for #tngpodcast to make sure I didn't miss one of them.

Thanks, that's nice to hear. Those take a lot of work and often not for more than 50 listens. Maybe that will change with the amount of new people on this site but I'm convinced that people just don't care as much about radio/podcasts as they do video. We are likely going to begin doing a Hubski video cast from the podcasts. That should be interesting.

Seems that podcasts and radio shows are really unappreciated. The beauty of radio shows and podcasts is that you can use your own imagination to fill in the show.

Also a huge advantage of podcasts is that you can listen to them without needing a screen.

That is most certainly true, but the popular feed isn't a bad place to start. Also, turn on the content discovery in your controls to see new content.
