I lost the text while adding it to the comment to the original blog post thread - but I have done some voice-blogging that captures much of the ideas from the text I used.
This first voice-post is an example of brainstorming, of making connections, going off on tangents, digressing, handling distractions, and generally drawing different ideas together for an outline. I then listened again, and made some notes, then added details and elaborated further in writing (That draft has been lost, unfortunately.)
Part One: meanderings (4.5 minutes)
The second kind of voice-blog post is a more polished commentary, and involves a review of the notes, and a talking through of the main points, a "giving voice" to the ideas. There was some overlap from the text, but much was altered in the moment of speech- the act of giving voice to the text altered it - some phrases were removed, some repeated and emphasized even.
Part Two: text vs voice blogging (8.5 minutes)
