Due to things happening earlier in the week, I had all of my small personal electronics with me, as you could understand. One of those items is my Edirol R-09 digital recorder.
So, I used it.
As you might already know, I do spend more time in my MINI than the average bear. Roughly 10 hours a week, sometimes more. Why not take advantage of that time, right? And, since it has been mentioned that I should attempt to do another show, and since I’m not really made of time, I took a cue from Robert in Toronto and did some recording in the MINI.
Soundseeing tour? Nope. Any automotive talk? Nope Rants? You might think, but again, nope.
It has actually been suggested that a podcast on technology be done. So, I gave it go. Here is what I’m thinking.
- Short (less than 20 minutes).
- Focus on 1 topic
- Possibly post it here to use as a discussion point
- Done in the MINI
So, I’ve done one. Episode zero is currently up on Pownce, but you are going to have to be my friend to download and listen, since it is my first. Don’t worry, I have 7 invites left if you want to get in and check it out. It’s appropriate that I have posted it there, since it is a short review of the service and what I think it could be used for.
If the feedback is positive enough, I’ll work on bringing it here. If I can get 10 episodes done on some kind of regular schedule, then I’ll put it in iTunes.
Production might usually be fairly rough. I’m going to record, mix to mp3 and upload. No background music (unless something is playing on the iPod) or fancy intro’s or outro’s. Just me talking. I will try to do it while I’m keeping a steady speed to keep the background noise low, but I still have to downshift on occasion ;).
If you are already on Pownce, friend me up and you can check it out. If you are already in my friends list, give it a listen (there is a player in th pownce window) and let me know what you think. Don’t worry, it’s short like I said, coming in at about 10 minutes and less than 5mb.
Again, if you listened and want to comment, go ahead and do that here. Your thoughts and comments are always appreciated!
