The Convenience of Podcasts
Suppose you have
a song, poem, or short film that you created.
There it is, sitting on your home computer,
unlikely to be heard or seen by anyone. Have
you ever thought about utilizing podcasts
to receive the recognition you deserve? Every
day internet savvy users all over the world
use podcasts to share news, opinions, music
and silly videos to express their talent.
What makes you different than the rest of
the world? If you have a talent or a passion
about something, share it with the rest of
the world using podcasts!
You’re probably wondering who uses podcasts.
Well, you may be surprised. Adolescents, college
students, religious organizations, educational
organizations, and even senior citizens have
embraced podcasts. Since the introduction
of podcasts in 2004, the global internet community
has been a much happier place! Listeners and
creators of podcasts are fanatical about their
hobby. They want to leave a dent on the world,
their mark. The internet has proven to be
a place to obtain recognition.
One of the most fantastic things about podcasts
is that they’re generally educational.
For years we’ve heard that our generation
is destructive, dumb, and lazy. With podcasts
we can show those baby boomers that we’re
interested in art, news, politics, and environmental
issues. Instead of writing a journal or blog
about our feelings, we can now express it
with audio and video capabilities. Then we
can share these podcasts with the world! There’s
power in numbers and positive social change
can occur with the help of podcasts.
What type of podcasts are most commonly listened
to, you’re probably wondering. Well,
that’s a good question. Music is definitely
in demand. Music podcasts can be listened
to on your home computer through stream or
podcasts can be downloaded. Once podcasts
are downloaded onto a computer, the music
can then be uploaded to a portable media device,
such as an mp3 player. After that, you can
listen to your podcasts whenever and wherever
you go! If that isn’t convenient, what
is?
Others podcasts that are quite popular are
video podcasts. Instead of listening to an
artist or a person on these pod casts, you
can see them too. Which, when you think about
it, is very cool! It’s hard to believe
that only 10 years ago people were still using
dialup to get on the internet. Now we can
watch streaming pod casts created on the other
side of the world. Isn’t it amazing?
