Recording and Sharing Audio
Learning to record and embed files was a useful thing to learn especially in today’s day and age. I found it really interesting to check out SoundCloud since I hear a lot of people use the website. I found that Anchor was extremely easy to use because I just recorded a voice clip and then …

I think that it is good that we have tools to use that enhance the public sphere and to assist in the exchanging …
