In our podcasts we explore how to engage, adopt and apply Web 2.0, new media and social media strategies to your business and we try to do so in a straight forward non geek way as none of us are 'technology gurus'.
If you would like to access the archive to all our shows, you can mouse on over to our show page at Blubrry which you will find here.
We really welcome your feedback on your experiences of adopting the strategies we discuss and ideas for future shows - our listeners have also been guests on our shows. You can email us at podcast.sisters(at)googlemail.com, comment in our FriendFeed Room or join our Facebook community.
We'd love to hear from you - what thoughts, feedback or suggestions do you have for future content? Or perhaps you have suggestions for subjects you would like us to cover?
