Comments on: Podcasting is about connections http://onglinepodcast.com/2007/12/03/podcasting-is-about-connections/ Ongline Podcast documents the life of a gay Malaysian-born Chinese living in the United States. Immerse yourself in the life of a not-so-typical individual. Expand your horizon by experiencing the topics, issues, stories, and simply, the life of a gay Asian man. Until now, the voice of a minority individual has not been this loud!

Listening to his No.173 - I felt so impotent - I so wanted to be able to do something to comfort him. My journey as a podcast listener has been an organic one. Started in Xmas 2005 with a random show which had a link to another which, in turn, had links to yet others. Which led me to the group of people I listen to today. Each and every one of them I value and respect for the time and effort that they expend in putting out their podcasts. They interest, amuse, sometimes infuriate, but always provide me with a connection to, & with, other lives, other life experiences, other cultures & viewpoints. Enables me to meet (albeit just online) people I would never have otherwise met and to share part of their lives. And in a small way, develop friendships. As you know, John, I arrived at the Ongline via Nick Thomas's podcast - and I am glad that I did. Yes, Nick Thomas seems to be having a tough time of it at the moment.
