Buzz Out Loud Lounge: Is/was there a BOL for kids?
Is/was there a BOL for kids?
by joipodgorny - 8/30/07 8:13 AMWas talking to a colleague the other day about all the tech podcasts I listen to and how cool it was when I heard a kid/teen call in. Then I thought - is there anything like TWIT or BOL for kids? Has there been anything in the past? Interested to see if anyone knows of anything.
bol is rated E for everyone

Lots of kids listen to BOL

Most tech news podcasts are pretty accessible to children as long as they aren't too geeky or specific like This Week in Media or MacBreak Tech.
true...however...
by shawnlin - 8/30/07 9:02 AM In reply to: Lots of kids listen to BOL by jialuoluit is this is an interesting idea... I like the idea that kids can produce and give feedback on their own podcast and then move to BOL when they grow out of it. ya know? maybe a 5-10minute segment a couple times a week...
Best,

Teen tech podcasts
by gogomama - 8/30/07 9:39 AM In reply to: Is/was there a BOL for kids? by joipodgornyFrom what I recall of one of the first live TWiTs they had a teenager in the audience who had put together a teen tech podcast network. It was aimed at teenagers so might be a little older that what you had in mind, and I don't know if it ever got off the ground, but it's the closest thing I can think of off hand to what you're looking for.
If teens are kids..which I guess we are
by Alegoo92 - 8/30/07 11:50 AM In reply to: Is/was there a BOL for kids? by joipodgornyThan BOL is THE podcast for kids... But other than that.. I don't think children are verymuch interested in rumors and DRM. :P

Was thinking about it...

I think that this would be great.
