Podcast Reflection #5: A new feature on VoiceThread

M5 commenting. This is the first time I have heard of this type of commenting. Steve Muth talks about how text messaging is cold, flat and leave you guessing who someone is and that they really mean in the message. M5 commenting is warmer and more accurate on your feelings about something. You use your webcam or a microphone and can comment on multiple posts that someone as posted. It leaves the other person more able to understand what exactly your comment means. Facial expressions and tones of voice are great detectors on how a person feels and what they truly mean.
