Explosions, Peas and The Fonz – it’s the weekly update!
Since I’m keen to welcome you all into the Audioboo family and keep you up to date with what we’re up to, I thought I’d record another weekly update for you. This time I thought I’d have a go at scripting it, instead of just rambling to myself in the corner. Unfortunately a combination of lack of sleep, and an unusual intake of caffeine means I may have scrambled some words, but at least you know it’s all genuine.
This week I got obsessed with pea harvesting, made friends with some teachers, listened to explosions and laughed at some “carcasts”. Links to all the Audioboos that I mention can be found below. Enjoy!
I’m also keen to get people in the Audioboo community sharing ideas and tips on how to use the service. I’m working on a few Twitter lists of people using Audioboo, making them public once I’ve got a decent number of people on each. So far I’ve got the following:
Let me know if you’d like to be added to any of those lists by tweeting me @Audioboo. I’m also thinking about voice-overs, sports, politics, literature, charities and theatres if those fit you better.
Now I know you can’t wait to find out what that pea-harvester sounds like, so here are links to some of the things that I’ve been listening to this week:
Celebrate Audioboo’s Official Unofficial Pea Week with the sound of a pea harvester
The Fonz! BBC London talks to Henry Winkler (but not about Happy Days)
Explosions in Libya – what a way to wake up
Great reporting from BBC Cornwall – more explosions
The prettiest dripping in the world?
