audioblogging...great fun huh?

Unknown said...

Only if it works out for readers and I remember to not talk so fast.

It is really easy to do though from a blogger perspective, and it's free! Which is even cooler yet.

no problems here. Opened quickly for me. Sound quality was good.

I like the idea of audioblogging - it can be a great tool.

I didn't think you were talking too fast.

Thanks Scott, I agree this could be useful. Especially if you saw something happen and wanted to be able to blog about it yet didn't have net access. If you had this set up and the phone number to it stored in your cell phone it works rather quickly.

ps...I know you've heard this from other people but I love your icon.

Lisa,
It opened quickly and was very clear even through my cheap speakers here at work.

Maybe you can record the LCC debate and post it as an audio blog supplement to your live blogging. That way everyone will be able to tune in even if not being able to listen to it live.

I like to hear the sighs and groans when a candidate is asked a difficult question and typed text does not have the same effect.

KK, I was also thinking that doing it that way would save it, almost an instant pod cast type scenario. I don't know how much time it will hold. Still have more to learn about it but I wanted to try to work any bugs out now incase I wanted to use it.

I see that you are limited to 5 miutes so you would have to post multiple blogs to get the whole debate. Also, while it may be free, are you charged for the phone call? It does not look to be a toll free exchange.

Unknown said...

I have a certain amount of free long distance in our house phone plan and if I use my daughter's cell phone that has free long distance but you are right it isn't a local call.

You can post more than one post thru one call though, it asks you after you are done if you want to record another post or hang up.

Sounds good!

Yay! Lisa has a voice! :)

It worked fine for me, and you didn't sound like you were talking too fast to me.

I podcast over on Blogcritics and I did a live Internet radio show ... almost makes me want to do my own but then I realized I need time to sleep.

Lisa,

Worked for me on a crappy (26.4k) dial-up, sort of...

That breathy, sultry voice that I had imagined was quite distorted :-)

Also the well thought out part seemed to be absent ;-)

I had to laugh though, because I dictate into my digital voice recorder, usually while I'm driving and transcribe/flesh-out my ideas later.

Clearly one of us may be doing something backwards. . .
