Why Blog

Clearly the audio quality is a long way from near human but I believe it is liveable with and provides yet another way to listen to the Venture Skills blog, it also provides a nice accessible method for those visitors who are visually impaired and those that are just to lazy to read. We shall carry on the experiment for a little while before determining if it will become a permanent member of the community.
