So, everybody has a MP3 player, right?*
And everybody has a computer with an internet connection, right?**
Imagine you’re a student and you have a class at 9pm after a long night drinking with your friends at the bar followed by chasing that hot girl to finally end up with her, after grabbing a large cappuccino at the nearest just opening up for a new day of business Starbucks (Or for Dutchies; Coffee Company), in your own bed, cuddling and sipping your cold coffee (because when the cappuccino was still hot, you were so too :) ). Would you like to get up at 8 and rush over to university to attend that always boring marketing management class? Or would you rather stay in bed with the hot girl?…….
Yes I thought so. SKIPP class!
And why would you go? I mean, at 11pm your new MacBook 13 inch downloads automatically the podcast of the marketing management class and you can play it on your iPod Nano 4gb during your workout session, while trying to impress some good looking ladies, later that day (Tip: Never try to impress ladies during workout!). Isn’t that great! The podcasts I mean. That’s what they are doing at the university of Wageningen***!
Wonder how many people will continue to physically follow classes :)
I see an opportunity for some tech savvy entrepreneurial students here…. College podcasts and vodcasts based on a subscribers fee….
* That is not true! But at least a large majority of young people in the Western World have one.
** ok, also not true. But all people who can read this do have it.
*** Take my advice on this one: NEVER go to the university of Wageningen! Oh BTW the link is in Dutch, sorry.
