Hi - just a brief reply to the equipment question. At outLoud radio we've been loving our Olympus LS-10's. Yes, I wish they were cheaper, but at least they're not as bad as the Marantz recorders. If you can stretch your budget to get one, it'll be...

- About Me:
- I'm a 17-year-old from Southern California with an aptitude of absurdity and an intense appreciation for hot, caffeinated beverages. I like to keep busy (trending toward being a workaholic) and fill the 20-some hours in a day with a heaping load of school work, laboring away at a movie theater and an inordinate amount of love for Harper's magazine.
I joined this site because I'm interested in journalism and am looking into radio but also because I'm hoping to make a short radio story or documentary on undocumented illegal aliens at my high school, as a part of advocacy for a new bill introduced to Senate, the DREAM act. I edit the campus literary magazine and will be editor of the paper next year, so I know something about journalism and interviewing, but absolutely nothing about radio. Still, I've always loved radio and know it would be a great way to get the word out.

The one that got her was something so simple: “People jogging.” Another might be advertisements for shiny new buildings right near vacant lots, like the photo above.
