Today's question, part II
If I figure out a way to record interviews and put the audio on the blog, will you actually click on it and listen to it, or would you rather just read a transcript of a Q&A session? I raise the question since there will be a few interviews in the next couple days, with Hextall, Crawford and a few players. Thanks for the input.
Along those lines, if there's any questions you want directed at any particular player as the season ends, send them on in. I've got a ton already for Hextall. I can't promise they'll all be answered but I'll take the most popular questions.

I would definately listen... reading the transcripts take longer.
As far as questions, I'll think it over. i definately have some.
Believe me - We'll listen - Styx66 downloads every pre and post game show... we listen :)

I may be in the minority, but I personally prefer transcripts over audio.
I prefer transcripts, as well. Firstly, for those us at work, we can't listen. Secondly, audio is harder to follow because we can't see the words (or lips) and re-listening to a part is harder. Thirdly, reading is faster for most of us. I'd rather read than listen, myself.
If it's not too much work, I think having both would be great. (If you would like, I wouldn't mind transcribing the interviews as I spent many years in college doing that for Professors!) Thanks for asking by the way.
Transcripts. I enjoy readinig something interesting as oppossed to listening. When I read I can always go back and reread. I don't want to press play again.

I would prefer transcripts. Makes it easier at work! Thank you.
Audio please.
I love being able to download podcasts and listen to them on my way to/from work. That said, I wouldn't want to sacrifice the readable content (if I had to choose only one), since I read throughout the day.
Maybe the entire interview in audible format with excerpts in the blog...
Just an idea....
I would listen, but transcripts are a little more user-friendly. Plus I can read them on my Blackberry!
I also prefer reading than listening. In the end it's more convenient.... :-)
Yes, transcripts please... boss don't like audio!
Transcripts, most definitely.
I prefer transcripts, as well. Hey, I'm a Kings fan, so I'm a little slow on the uptake. I like to have the text in front of me.
podcasting is the wave of the future. pretty cheap to accomplish too.
Hello
You are The Best!!!
