Change in the Journey's Podcast

Beginning with my next live broadcast I will add Google+ hangouts to the broadcast. I have been experimenting with the idea, and will launch it on my next live broadcast. The idea is to provide video and another way to interact with my audience. The show will  broadcast on youtube  and allow the listener to respond immediately as well as participate in my experiment with emergence. The listener will be able to send direct messages as well as share their thoughts on the shows notepad. The idea is to have people  share insights disappointments, ideas, discussion points and etc. with the entire audience. Everyone that checks into the hangout will be able to use the notepad and leave their mark on the show.

The one negative is that i will have to mute myself from the discussion. I will be able to hear (maybe), but I will not be able to speak while the show is running.  Because I will be broadcasting over Youtube there is no limit to how many people can tune in and participate, but to get the full experience they will have to run Google+  hangout and spreaker until I get word on how to integrate both apps.

This move will allow  the Journey to build an audience that drives the show and the discussion, and also brings the host and guest into the home of the listeners, so that the show is less like a talk show and more like a community ( +Gye-Nyame Journey  ), or better yet a moving, dynamic, and living organism.  Better yet the experience will be like no other show on the planet. On my blog I have often talked about the idea of emergence, and with this format as the audience grows so will the surprises that will be launched into the discussion. 

This will be another challenge for me because I will have to respond to multiple ideas  coming at me from all directions, which is how I like it. So come on out and join me as I move out in to my social experiment. I can only wonder  about what will come from this.
