Me too, that's why I brought it up :) > From my own perspective, I don't think I'd listen to this. You're not target audience though are you to be fair. But I don't know if blind/partially sighted people would listen either, or would they just use a screen reader. Is there a preference for human reading over screen readers amongst the blind, I have no idea. > Why not trial it first and see what the take up is? True. So long as we had access to the stats to see how many downloads/subscribers there were (for example using feedreader I know there's about 1000 people who view screencasts through miro/democracyplayer alone) to measure the effectiveness. The other option might be to actually make it into a podcast. One thing I hear when people talk about Ubuntu podcasts is the lack of ideas for content. How about piggybacking off the UWN and using that as a base. Talk about the news articles, the teams and people. Maybe interview new members and people from recently-approved LoCo teams as part of the podcast. That way you complement the UWN, build on the audience it already has, and provide a different media in which to get that content. Having two (or more) presenters would give it scope for discussion, rather than just one person talking over the news. (I personally prefer podcasts where there are multiple presenters (LUGRadio, TWiT etc, over the single person podcasts). Even if it was only 15-30 mins once a week it could be quite a potential draw. Something to think about. Cheers, Al.
