What Are the Best Information Management Podcasts? Reviews and Ratings
Intelligent Information Management (IIM) | AIIM on Air
Quick disclaimer - if you stumbled onto this page because of an errant keystroke like I had when looking for a suitable image for this post and were actually looking for "The Best PodCATS"...without further ado, I bring you the best "podcat" I could find:
But, if what you're really interested in learning about are the best podcasts on the topic of information management; then, you're in the right place.
Since it's release, the AIIM On Air podcast has had over half a million downloads, averaging around 10,000 downloads per month. We work hard to deliver these 25-minute episodes exploring the methods, technologies, processes, and people on the front lines of information management. But, despite putting out two new episodes per month, we still get people asking for more.
So, for those podcast bingers out there looking for more, we thought we would put a list together of our favorite information management podcasts to help keep your ears happy on your commute, at the gym, or anywhere else you listen to them. (*Note: To keep it neutral, we're using the listener ratings on Apple Podcasts.)
