For Your Inner Podcaster

Having multiple ways to communicate your vision to your constituents is important in this age of constant information. Setting up a blog is easy and effective. If you want to go the podcast route, there is probably  a studio on campus you can use.
But what if inspiration strikes during the night? If you feel the built-in micraphone on your computer is adequate but not the quality you are looking for, then you might want to pick up a G-Track USB Microphone from Samson Technologies ($149). This condenser microphone has a built-in audio interface and mixer, and comes with a desk stand and all the cables you need to get started. If you are on a Mac, you can start recording immediately using either GarageBand or Audacity (go into preferences and change your input from the built in option). For PC users, the unit ships with Cakewalk's Sonar LE software.
So go ahead, let your voice be heard.
