This is very similar to things I find on YouTube. I really love the way this shows opinions on the item, except that people don’t think about negative outcomes, because, frankly, their are none.

sorry, but i really didn’t find this particularly helpful. I see that it’s kinda cute, and i’m totally fine with the whole metaphor idea – but surely it would be good to actually talk about social media for what it is today a little?

So stupid. Do they sell ice cream or what? How do they compete with the big factory?

Point taken, though I think we might be getting into splitting hair territory. Do you have a link for that Center for Journalism quote? I’d love to blog about it.

A reply on a …
A reply on a podcast is not “episodic” by definition therefore not a true “podcast” but rather a “response video”.Therefore, I would rather consider podcasting as a tool for social media. ( not that all these make any significant difference in practice , only theoretically)

“Center for …
“Center for Journalism and Communication Research at the University of Texas at Austin in the USA proposed a four-part definition of a podcast: A podcast is a digital audio or video file that is episodic; downloadable; programme-driven, mainly with a host and/or theme; and convenient, usually via an automated feed with computer software”. One of the key words in the all definitions for podcasting is “episodically”.

Podcasting usually …
Podcasting usually comes with RSS, which usually means a comments section somewhere. Go back to the site where the podcast is posted and you’re likely to have a venue for return channel communication. I commented on a space podcast once and the following podcast spent 20 minutes answering my comment. Also, to the point of this video, you record your podcast, then I record my podcast in response – we both can ’cause it’s so cheap and easy – we’re communicating back and forth.

there is one thing though, one might argue that “podcasts” or “podcasting” is not “social media” since it is a one way comunication channel
fantastic video! it’s clear that a lot of hours went into the making of it

Great but…um. Not helpful if you are the big ice cream company. How does that company use social media? Same problem with most social media explanations. Simplistic, not actionable. But it’s fun and sounds great.
