My podcast reflection

So this week we did podcasts not my favorite thing. I hate listening to the sound of my own voice for starters as well as having other people hear how dumb I sound. Two of the things that I have hated all my life. Second so many topics to choose from it makes it harder to choose a good one I spent days trying to come up with a topic that I knew enough about to not sound stupid talking for 3 plus minuets. Third and most important the program that I used to make my pod cast was not user friendly as I kept making mistakes with one word and always towards the end I would mess it up and have to start all over at the beginning.

In the beginning of class I was so afraid of the weekly blogs because I always thought that everyone was laughing at me when they were reading my blog but I got over that because as far as I knew only class members were reading them. That all changed after I did my ToonDoo review and got a comment on it by one of the co-founders then I got scared again. But I can tell you that it's gone for good now that I have a podcast out there with my voice on it. I am not sure if I will ever do anything outside of class with podcasts until I feel more comfortable with my thought being out there for others to hear.

All in all I learned a lot through this project and enjoy pushing my boundaries. If I had it to do again I would have used a different program as the one I used really was not working well for me could not get the picture to load and on three occasions my saved audio file diapered causing me to have to rerecord it.
