Despite the appearance of this being a blog dedicated to Twitter, the intention has always been to cover microblogging as a whole.
To me, microblogging means every short form publishing format – so the 140/160 character text sites such as Plurk, Identi.ca, etc, and also the video formats such as Seesmic, 12 seconds etc.
But the third content type hasn’t really been covered – audio.
Obviously Audioboo is getting a lot of press at the moment, and quite rightly, due to the fact their iPhone app is a real USP. Converting audio pre-transfer means higher quality for starters – which matters a lot of broadcasters.
Then there are alternatives, such as Phonevite and ipadio, or even the voice-to-text magic of Spinvox.
So should I be ramping up the coverage of the Twitter alternatives? Should there be more coverage of microvideo apps? Or does the sound of more audio interest you?
