web directions south podcast

It's very weird to hear your own voice as others hear it, but curiosity won out: webdirections | september 26-29 2006 » Cheryl Lead and Ben Buchanan - Moving your organisation to web standards.

It's funny how I love public speaking, but I feel embarrassed listening to a recording of it later! :) But that's the nature of things I guess... most of us don't hear our own voices played back too often, so it always comes as a bit of a surprise.

Still, people seemed to enjoy the session and I think we covered some good stuff. The questions were great, too! ...and we remembered to repeat nearly all of them for the podcast :)

One visual thing that didn't really come across... when I said "may geek out without warning" I was referring to the shirt I was wearing :)

So anyway, check it out...

    I missed this session, was in the other stream I think. So its good to get the pod cast and hear what I missed.

    You don't think you sound like the voice you hear because you hear it internally and externally at the same time, its all to do with acoustics of the human head.

    I hate hearing myself speak, but love speaking in public.. go figure... Maybe its an ego thing.. .

    I don't think anyone likes hearing themselves speak. I used to do some radio work, and loved being behind the microphone, but hated hearing any tapes afterwards. Same with podcasts.
