OK – I have to admit it – I have an addiction to podcasting. I am not personally a podcaster, but I listen to them for hours a day. I have never been a music lover, never was one to walk around with ear-buds blaring whatever the lastest tune is – but now I do that with podcasts. Why? I think it’s the hours a day I sit behind the computer without human interaction and podcasting gives me a sense of connection to the larger world. Yes, I interact with my family and friends, but now I can feel connected to the larger world – far beyound the small ND community in which I live.
Comment when ported from prior blog:
“Listening to podcasts is like sitting on a couch on a winter morning with a mug
of coffee and some other people are sitting around in the comfy chairs talking
to each other. Sometimes they are friends, sometimes they are family, but never
are they strangers and you always get to choose the flavor of conversation.”
