For some time, I’ve been thinking about how to use Audioboo in a non-broadcast sort of way.\u00a0 Think about it.\u00a0 It’s like radio but with an audience of one or not many.\u00a0 Most of us use Audioboo in ‘broadcast mode’ meaning that we are making a piece of what used to be callled ‘sound radio’.\u00a0 We make it, they listen to it [eof].\u00a0 But it doesn’t need to be like that.<\/p>\n

The Audioboo site recognises this in that once you’ve listened to a Boo; you are encouraged to comment in text.\u00a0 But you could BooBack (hah) which is what I did with Rory.\u00a0 Here is his Audioboo:<\/p>\n

And here is mine in response:<\/p>\n

Now, it’s not a conversation yet – but it could be.\u00a0 Rory tweeted this:<\/p>\n

The following day, I made another Audioboo<\/p>\n

<\/object><\/p>\n

Which is relevant.\u00a0 But there it stops.\u00a0 A conversation that never developed.\u00a0 But it could.\u00a0 It still might.\u00a0 ‘Think on Lad” as my Yorkshire Grandma used to say.<\/p>\n
