just curious, since this is a podcast, is this going to end up a series of videos available for download with an rss feed? or (more likely) is this a misuse of the term 'podcast', and only one will be used in the end, to be viewed online or through a single download? i'm always a little picky with things like this, because when used incorrectly, it's like your dad trying to be 'cool' in front of your friends, and really only ends up being the opposite. words like podcasts need to be used correctly, or you end up sounding like you're just using a buzzword to get attention with a certain crowd. granted, most people are ignorant about such things anyways, so perhaps it doesn't really matter. otherwise, interesting idea, i'd be curious to see what people come up with. |
