First Audio, Then Video, Next Go Live!

"A picture is worth a thousand words."  
                             -Napoleon Bonaparte.

This quote comes to mind upon reflection of the contents of chapters 9, 10, and 14 of "The Social Media Bible".  It's an informative, and interesting book that explain the "ins-and-out" of Social Media.  Chapter nine explained audio creation via podcast.   PodBean.com or iTunes were highlighted as websites that assist with making a podcast.  The steps involved were introduction, recording, shaving off, editing then publishing while adding special effects.  

On the other hand, chapter ten admonish users to share old or vintage VHS audios by digitizing them or creating a podcast.  Therefore, making them available for others to see; that is, sharing with friends, family, employees, and prospective clients.  They can be added web pages, blog pages, photographs, audio podcasts, and YouTube videos.
Finally, Chapter 14 encourages users to "Go Live from Anywhere" stated Lon Safko (2012).  Web radio, net radio, livecasting, webcasting, web conferencing, or webinars, broadcasting information online is all about creating "live" content that uses the internet to distribute or stream that content (p. 318).  Internet Radio, Justin.tv, BlogTalkRadio, and Ustream.tv are just a few examples of this type of social media.  The author admonishes users to explore livecastling by first getting a webcam, then try a webinar or your own radio show and finally try a web conference.

                              Just Do It!!!
