The Sound of...Podcasting

This week we learned how to make podcasts and utilize garageband on the Mac. I learned this week that podcasts are really easy to make. I also finally opened up Garage Band for the first time and it is really cool. Garage Band is a program that comes on all Macs and allows the user to easily make songs and beats. I have been playing with it all day and can not stop, making beats is so much fun.

Every day thousands of new podcasts are added to iTunes. Many athletes, sports broadcasters, and athletic figureheads such as Athletic Directors have podcasts these days. Being a sports management major I will be dealing with these players and since they are trying to get involved with this new type of media it is important for me to be savvy with it. Learning this will actually benefit me in my future.

The video I chose shows the possibilities of Garage Band. It is some talentless guy trying to sing but he is able to sound half decent because of Garage Band. Podcasts are so easy to make and something like this can easily be turned into a podcast.
