Sightcasting
Another Update: So, BBC ran a piece on podcasting in the next election. Check it out.
Update: See my sample SightCast!
Podcasting sucks. for those of you who haven't been exposed to it, count yourselves lucky. In a nutshell, it's an audio blog. People record themselves talking about their lives and opinions instead of just writing. Why is this a problem? Because I listen to iTunes while I'm online. So to listen to this glorification of on-demand radio, I have to pause iTunes and listen to poorly recorded audio.
I'm all about multimedia. I just think that it should ddo more or not be used. I'd be all about Sightcasting (Using an iSight to record audio and video for online consumption). That'd just be neat. Why don' we see more of that? This could be just video of the person talking, which I think would provide a fun personal touch, or it could entail actual editing, and real video could be incorporated. Even if it's just still images. Just something to think about.

Hahahahaha. That SightCast made me laugh. You should do them all the time, but you might want to consider decorating the wall behind your bed. It's awfully plain.

Nice! Did you coin the phrase "Sightcast"? You should get a trademark. I'll vouch for you dude!

I think so. I mean I made it up. I don't think anyone else has used it before. Everyone has an iPod and only a very small percentage of mac users has iSights. I really came up with the idea on the old sight abot a year ago and only did one or two. It just requires messing around in iMovie a bit.
