In recent years, audio trails have become a very popular addition to heritage sites and tourist attractions - and now podscrolls are the next 'big' thing for personal media devices. A podscroll is simply a digital booklet that can be downloaded onto your iPod and viewed when you want it. Imagine having a visitor guide saved onto your iPod - no more need for pieces of paper printed off from the internet.

The podscroll is saved in the 'photos' section of your iPod and you can view the pages one at a time by using the forward and rewind buttons, or use the scroll wheel to go quickly to a section. Used in conjunction with an audio trail you have the ultimate visitor guide - all contained on technology that many people carry around in their pocket. Visit the Charles Darwin section of the audio trails website to download a podscroll that contains not only a map and directions to help you navigate your way around the trail, but also a series of activities to help you make the most of your visit and think about how this great man went about his work.

If you would like us to develop an audio trail, podscroll or other innovative form of interpretation for your site (e.g. bluetooth, GPS) then please contact us.

What happens if you don't own an iPod?

Podscrolls can also be used on other digital media players, including Smartphones and Personal Digital Assistant's (PDA's) so they are not exclusive to iPod.

How do I download a podscroll?

It's a very simple and follows the same principle as syncing your iPod. With every podscroll that we develop we provide an instruction sheet to make the process as smooth as possible.
