Calling all Podcasters As The Podcast Domain is Back This Year at Cisco Live!
Last year we tried something new. It was inspired by a number of folks I’ve known over the years who tried to find a quiet space at Cisco Live to record a podcast. Oddly, it’s not that quiet at a conference that hosts 28,000+ people doing all sorts of not-so-quiet things. I’ve seen people squeeze…
