Podcast Me, Baby!
Podcasting is in its infancy, but so’s my Podcast so it all actually works out.
Dig it. If one were to go to my Podcast blog, you’d get to hear me instead of having to read me. Hooray.
And if you have what’s called an aggregator, you can enter this feed into it: http://feeds.feedburner.com/timstotzspodcast
An aggregator is agrain handling implement program that you can use to retrieve feeds from some of the more than already 65,000 Podcasts out there.
If you don’t want to deal with all that, don’t worry. The new iTunes (4.9) will have a built in one that will work fine.
There are so many Podcasts out there now, and there is something for every one. It reminds me of radio on demand. You can get news (ABC has exploded with the Podcasting), entertainment (a celebrity you like—besides me—has a Podcast out), and all kinds of wacky stuff. find a list here.
The Podcasting thing was started (at least in part) by Adam Curry…yeah the big hair guy from Mtv. I thought it had to be a lie, or an overstatement, like Al Gore inventing the Internet. Or maybe an urban legend like the kid from the life cereal commercial died from a poprocks and coke mixing experiment. But nope it’s true.
It’s all so hip and trendy and of the moment, and I have me the starting of a Podcast.
See, here’s the thing though. It’s not really all about me. (gasp) This is all just a proving ground for trying out this new technology. I have a couple other applications for this in the works. Here’s a hint about one of them: _________, stop this crazy thing!
P.S. yes, my first entry into the world of Podcasting is actually kind of underwhelming, and makes me sound mildly retarded. (At the end of the day any thing that makes me seem mildly retarded as opposed to full on yellow bus is ok with me.) but more to come my Stotz-addicted monkeys
