The "Rules"

Just wanted to let you know that we added a rule to our list of rules on the Join In page. These rules are meant to help — please email us if you find something unreasonable. We think it’s all pretty reasonable. The recently added rule is:

All podcasts should be premiering at least some content. We don’t want to solely re-broadcast previously published material. It is OK if you include excerpts of your previously published material in your podcast and we encourage you to direct people to more information.

I may have misled some people in a comment to a previous post. You can use previously published material in your podcast, but we are asking people to produce a podcast specifically for 365 Days of Astronomy.

Hope that makes sense. Please act now if you want to contribute a podcast or two! If you can’t think of a topic, email us, tell us a little about yourself and we’ll help you think of ideas or put you in touch with other complimentary people.
