Podcast 5
I have had a go at using the visual podcasting service from Voicethread and I have to say, it was pretty intuitive.

I only had one slight problem in production -I forgot to add my intro music at the beginning. There’s probably a simple way to do it, but I didn’t find it.
+ points
- very easy to use
- allows contribution by voice, video or saved recording
- allows feedback and comments - moderated by the creator (this thread’s moderated)
- embeds into Edublogs posts
-ve points
- does not integrate with iTunes
- allows students to browse other Voicethreads by other people - I do not know if this is moderated
I would highly recommend having a go at this - you might like to comment on my production or just saying ‘hello’ - in fact, I’d really like to see what it looks like to have a collaborative podcast and see if this would work in the classroom. My suspicion is that it would be brilliant

I, too, am interested in VoiceThread. I used one for my Day in a Sentence feature, which you can check out (and add to, if you want)
