2nd test with Ipadio

In my ongoing exploration of Ipadio, I took the time to interview an intern who is working with me at our office in Saline over the next few weeks. Ipadio definitely has a lot to offer journalists. Infact, one newspaper Web site I stumbled across in the United Kingdom, relies heavily on citizen journalists using Ipadio to conduct interviews and do their own stories. There’s also a lot I don’t yet understand from the program either. It says you can synch to Twitter and Facebook and Blogger anytime you publish a new audio recording. I tried to do that, following simple instructions, but I haven’t seen a link on my Facebook or Twitter account yet. If you use your phone, you can also upload four photos with your audio recording. I took a picture of Justin to see what the quality would be like. Apparently you do not have to use Ipadio just on a cell phone. You can register any phone with the Website and use the program as well. I talked to the Ipadio CEO and he said the program’s features are free for journalists. There are definitely some bugs to work out in the coming weeks. For instance, I have yet to figure out how to embed the audio interview with stories and other blogs, etc. Stay tuned!
