Final Project Idea

My final project idea is to create a video podcast which deals with the commercial shipping industry. Using shiptracker.com and a vessels IMO tracking number, we will locate where a vessel is in the world currently, display that information on the screen and conduct a small interview via Skype or perhaps a short E-mail correspondance. I believe this would be entertaining and enriching to people's lives because it would give them a glimpse into a world that they do not encounter and it would also be an effective way to use multimedia to show the complexitites of the shipping industry.
