The National Park Service is Podcasting

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

The NPS has shown that it’s never too late to get into podcasting. Realizing that technology and the environment need to coexist, several parks have put together audio tours and podcasts to entice and educate the public. The survival of the National Park Service depends on an active citizenry enjoying in and voting to protect them in the future. There is no budget for TV ads, and since our nations youth are spending less and less time in front of the TV, it only makes since that the parks go digital.

One of my former coworkers from the Presidio had an idea for rangers across the National Parks to do a Where the Hell is Matt type of video campaign with different rangers dancing in front of iconic NPS sites. Still sounds like a good idea… if you’re reading this NPS.

Here is a partial list of their Podcasts:
