We tweet, we blog, we facebook – but where do we go to use our voice or to hear the voice of someone else in the world of Social Media? Now we can broadcast. Broadcastr is here. You can record a story – attach it to to a particular place on a map and someone else can listen to that story.
Here’s how they describe it themselves: Broadcastr is a Social Media platform for location-based stories. It enables the recording, indexing, listening, and sharing of audio content. Just like in human memory, every story is bound to a place.Whether dishing last night’s details to friends, uncovering local lore, perusing restaurant reviews, listening to travel guides, tuning in to citizen journalism, contemplating oral histories, or sharing hilarious anecdotes, Broadcastr amplifies all our voices. Users can take a GPS-enabled walk as stories about their surroundings stream into their headphones, like a museum tour of the entire world. Users can record their own content, create playlists, follow their friends, and share on Facebook.
So is this the next big thing? As a nation of story tellers this was made for the Irish.
