Blogging : Twitter :: Podcasting : ________

The answer is “Twittergram”. A 200k or less audio file that is linked from a Twitter post.

It’s a fun idea, but I’m not a big fan of the artificial limitation. Twitter is limited technically because SMS messages have a fixed upper-limit for length; thus, Twitter messages have to be 140 characters or less. I’m not sure why Twittergram audio snippets technically need to be less than 200k.

Ignoring the arbitrary artificial limitation, I really like the trend of continually micro-chunked content. I wonder what the atomic element will be as we continue to micro-chunk down?

Anyway, once I pick up a mic for this computer, I’ll try my hand at some Twttergrams.
