Podcasting

This week we went over podcasts, from how to make one to how to pick one. I never used podcast before in my life and was very interested in finding out my opinion about them was based on the a small fraction of what podcast was. I was excited to know that podcasting included music,articles, movies , TV and more. I don't think I will get much personal use out of it, but there are some cool learning podcasts out there for kids, which would be better than TV because then they can use their imagination.I dont know as if podcast will make it big or last long, but nothing really does anymore there is always bigger and better things to come with more complication, and more convenience or so they say.

  1. You mention not watching as much TV in your blog, and I very much support your thoughts. Tv seems to be one of the main evils for kids today!
    I thought it was really cool that you can get podcasts that are trailers for things like games, movies, etc. I also liked how there were things I would actually want to listen to!! yay!

  2. I agree about its use for kids however in my search I never came across a sensor and kids can stumble upon a podcast called Marijuana radio which I don't think is appropriate for them. Yet I found this podcast under education podcasts in the search bar. I think the podcasts that are useful to children are the same ones you can find in stores mostly, a.k.a. audio books.
