Hi there, Sarah here.
The team at SnapComms thought it would be useful to set up a blog for the Internal Communicators network. This way, we can share ideas and ask questions with other Internal Communicators across the country (we'll invite the groups from Central and South to participate too).
We'll also include links to any useful information, related research etc that we find.
I'd welcome any comment and thoughts.....

Pod casts relating to internal communications
I was the lucky recipient of an Ipod at Christmas complete with a Itrip to allow me to listen in the car. So I’ve been putting it to good use.
There are some pod casts relating to Internal Communications and PR that you can down load for free from the Itunes store (www.apple.com/itunes/store/podcasts.html)
It’s great to listen in the car. Some of the ones I have come across so far are:
“For Immediate Release – The Hobson and Holtz Report”
“For Immediate Release is co-hosted by Neville Hobson, based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, and Shel Holtz, based in Concord, California, USA. Hobson and Holtz are two seasoned communications professionals who believe they have something to say”
“More than Talk Pod cast” – A pod cast “dedicated to improving executive communications”
“Comsscafe.com” – “The better desirable roasted communications café”
“Talking Communications with Farrell Kramer” - is a podcast focusing on all aspects of communications -- from public relations to journalism. Farrell Kramer is founder and president of Farrell Kramer Communications, LLC. Before entering public relations, he spent roughly a decade as a reporter, writing investigative, business and general-interest stories, most recently for The Associated Press. Kramer brings this experience from both sides of the communications business to the podcast, which features interviews with journalists, communications professionals, marketers and others with insight into modern-day communications.”

Useful resources on the internet
Most of you probably already know about these sites, but in case you don’t, I thought I’d mention them as useful links
http://www.simply-communicate.com/
A UK based portal for internal communicators. You need to sign up (and pay 125 UK pounds) to gain access to all articles but there is some stuff there for free.
http://www.internalcommshub.com/
Another internal communicators portal that allows you to sign up with a UK or US bias. There are loads of useful articles although they don’t seem to be updated regularly enough to justify paying the fee of USD$395. You can sign up for a weeks free trial. I have to admit that when I’ve wanted to access something, I’ve just signed up for the trial (using different email addresses – my work one and then my personal one)
The internal comms hub is run by Melcrum publishing. You can click their link at the bottom of page and visit their site. There you can access research, training and journals relating to Internal Communications
