Emerging Technology Post 1: Podcasting!

Have you ever wanted to explore technology and were afraid? For several years I have had the pleasure of working with and on an easy to manage technology that allows you to record your voice for audio messaging. The technology I am exploring is Podcasting!

Podcasting is a tool to record your voice to transmit messages. It allows you to communicate a wide variety of formats whether being a sports show, news show, or etc. It's useful in the sense in enables you to communicate with people more personally than just black and white font, or pictures. It gives you the ability to listen and visualize.

Several years ago I started a sports podcast. My podcast was called Inside Indiana Sports and still runs today. I thought it would be cool to have a sports show and have listeners. I felt like I had enough credibility and background to deliver this show. Unfortunately it only lasted a short while to due time constraints, which you will understand after listening to it the effort and preparation was needed to make the show. I believe you will find my opening tag lines very amusing with my different voice impersonations I changed for every show. I used podomatic.com to make and upload my podcast. Super Easy! Your normal sign up email page and a few step in filling out information and Wolla, you're done!

Here is the website where you can view my shows.

  1. A great example of incorporating music and graphics. Once I master this stuff, I will remember this podcast and definitely "borrow" some ideas from it! :-)
