Podcasting technologies
Can’t watch tv, can’t listen to radio x-NPR, no magazines. Doesn’t know what to do in the evenings. Got on internet, found blogs, found audio in blogs, video in blogs. Found a knitting blog and thought if there’s knitting there must be loads of cool stuff.
Created 49media (what’s on the web tonight, honey?) Really cool stuff that’s not on mainstream media. Browse around and see what’s new. So what is relevant? And how do we know? Each person knows what’s relevant for themselves so it’s not so much about what’s cool out there, but you can find out what’s relevant to you.
Shows most recent searches – on image, audio & video latest: Korean, ONR thing (?), Kelly Clarkson Because of You
Can go down to just image or just audio or just video.
Trying to do categorisation entertainment, tech, variety, arts, music, personal, news & politics, hobbies, food&drink, sports, society, places, business, other, adult.
Plus Popular, will give you most popular in each media group.
So he started going to SF meetup and asked if he should do a podcast so he started interviewing people who are making media that shows up in 49media.
