Blogoforum - blog+forum on audio and web2.0 http://blogoforum.com/tag/audio+web2.0 Talk about audio and web2.0 I will podcast http://blogoforum.com/tag/audio+audiobooks+hypertext+internet+media+music+piano+podcast+sound+text+voice+voip+web2.0/i-will-podcast-1748.html So I decided not to blog... much text. I mean, I prefer to use my voice -of course- rather than my fingers and eyes. Text can be read faster but it's easier to misunderstand. Audio can be sent as quick as you speak in a natural way, and there's no need for emoticons :-) . I want to communicate faster. Most of the times, inspiration comes when you don't have access to a keyboard, you'll be probably walking, traveling, eating, cycling... Sometimes your ideas will come to you when you are in bed, and they aren't easy to remember by the morning. So, what about saving thoughts into a voice recorder? In my opinion, we should listen more to the Web, and read it less, I mean, we should avoid looking too much at the screen. That's very good for our tired eyes. Listen: VoIP, podcasts, audiobooks... It looks like the new Web is more like the Radio, sometimes even like a walkie-talkie, since the streaming media is already here. And the same thing is happening with video, as the connection rates are increasing. Audio has its obvious inconveniences, as hyperlinking. I wonder how we could jump from audio to audio, as we do with the hypertext. The hyperaudio? One of the things I most enjoy is music. About ten years ago I left my piano lessons, and now I miss my fingers, I miss the music I used to play. So one of the ideas for this blog is trying to podcast my own performances on the piano as an exercise of self-criticism. Also, I will upload pieces played by famous artists. Excuse me for the recordings -and the player- audio quality, I will try to find out how to improve it. Let's listen! - 1 reply Sun, 25 Jun 2006 19:28:55 GMT http://blogoforum.com/tag/audio+audiobooks+hypertext+internet+media+music+piano+podcast+sound+text+voice+voip+web2.0/i-will-podcast-1748.html
