So I’ve just found the new service AudioBoo, which I think may well turn out to be the next twitter. It allows anyone (well, anyone with an iPhone, at the moment) to record 3 minute clips of audio to be hosted by AudioBoo. You can follow people, tag your Boos – or at least that’s what I think they’re called – set a location for each one and allow people to comment on them. I thought about setting up some kind of bitesized development podcast, but as you can hear in my first boo My First Waffling, I’ve decided to use it really as a record of what I’m doing as well as recording random thoughts, much like twitter.
If you’re new to it, you might like to check out some of these people:
- ihatemornings (Ben Walker): profile, feed
- Stephen Fry: profile, feed
- Boagworld (Paul Boag): profile, feed
- Tony Blackburn: profile, feed
- And ofcouse, me! profile, feed
Give it a try, you can even upload your boos anonymously if you’re shy / embarrassed / really boring. It’s fun, I promise.
