You’re really articulating something I’m having a hard time articulating myself. I think it’s why I’ve been gravitating towards audiobooks, podcasts, media services that offer their articles as audio, etc. I have always used audio as a major point for information, but I’ve been really turning to it lately for anything of substance. As someone with ADHD multitasking is in my blood (obviously this is different for everyone but that’s how mine often manifests). The digital age is in some ways incredible for someone like me, because I am able to pick up things that fall through the cracks at speeds I could never do previously. Search functions are my lifeblood. But as you’re discussing, it’s hard to distinguish between different sorts of content now, which is very important for someone like me. I need to kind of know what I am signing up for, and I don’t need everything to be designed for speed reading or quick glances. Audio formats don’t really fall into this problem. They are the links they are, and it is right in front of you. It is a known, concrete quality. The only thing you can do is change the speed at which it plays back, which is an entirely different thing. I don’t know maybe I’m a little off base here, but something about what you wrote just made me think about that and really click into place why I’ve been listening to so much audio contact and reading so much less. I need to fire up my kindle paper white a little probably.
