podcast fever

March 31st, 2008

After subscribing to like 20 podcasts I have been quite busy listening and watching.

I observed a pattern, they all start similar and they all end similar. Each podcast has a introduction which is always  the same, introducing the maker, giving the URL and introducing the podcasts topic.

The end is usually a thank you to the listener and oftentimes the URL again. Some podcasts don’t end quite that formal, they have a punchline of some sort.

There is a slight difference in podcasts made for children vs. podcast for adults. Though both follow the pattern.

Also a podcast has to be a series of some sort, otherwise it is simply a soundfile.

I have also looked at a few different podcast collectors, but I ran into a little problem there, especially because there aren’t many podcast collectors out there for mac users. I don’t think the collectors will be part of my final project, but I am still thinking about that.

I also decided I have to brainstorm about an original name for my podcast because one thing I noticed is that the names out there are all quite boring simply describing the cast, very few funny ones.
