Quest 12 - Podcasts

I listened to a Click- a- Story from Thomas Ford Memorial Library. It was The shoemaker and the elves. I thought that this was a very cool concept, what a great way to put a story on the web. The story could be added to blogs or websites. I also listened to a Teen review of Inkheart from the same library. Once again this grabbed me as being a fantastic tool for libraries to add to blogs, websites, Myspace, etc. What a great way to get young adults involved with a library.
While I was exploring the sites, I realized that I had been listening to a type of podcast for years - South Carolina Stingray Hockey away games on the Internet!
Quest 12 was a fun exploration and I saw possible uses for our Library System in both YouTube and podcasts. This is a great way to connect with young adults and tweens.
