At last, the question has been posed that I find easy to answer. It may not be right that I should be able to answer it so easil. The fact that I can might indicate that I am very ignorant for not engaging sufficiently with this aspect of media presentation.

I do not watch podcasts. I have never watched the podcast and at this point don’t know that I ever will.

Without a doubt, a lot of work goes into producing a podcast and the awards that people earn for the creation are certainly justified. However, most podcasts tend to be a wee bit regurgitated in terms of covering things that have already made the news or media in other contexts.

I worry about podcasts, in part because they may well mean taking a lot of my time. I do a lot of work through blogging and LinkedIn and in several other respects, so don’t feel the urge to go down the podcast road.

As an extension of this question I sometimes wish I could get into YouTube and maybe do some recording on that device. For me, that would be a learning experience and I have to confess that I am rather frightened and nervous about domains that are new and untried.
