Week 10 - Thing 24

I like Podcasts. I like Videocasts. I am a frequent listener/watcher on my computer/zune. They work well when they are on an automatic download and all in one place for me, rahter than going to a source to find them. I am currently subscribed to AOTS, Around the Net, XPlay, Best Week Ever, Vintage Cartoons, Comedy Central and 2Player. My news I get from my RSS feeds. Now what is nice about most podcasts/videocasts are that they are nonscripted, and sound natural, fun and entertaining.

The podcast that is given to the members of Web 2.0 for the Beach are subjected to a painful podcast where you can tell the person talking is obviously reading from something. It hurts and numbs the mind. So honestly I have been finding more people read than actually listen, since its right there anyways.

Now there is another complaint, and yes, these will probably be compiled at the very end of the whole project I know, but in the exercises with Readers and what not, there was a note saying there wasn't a need to make accounts for Bloglines and the such, well why then, are you asking to add a feed to the blogline account? Honestly, it should be enough to merely blog about knowing what it is.

I stop rant here.

Here's a great link if you are looking for Vodcasts: Vodcast.tv
