Sound Bytes

For our media blog, we have been asked to do 'sound byte' essays, as a 1500 word essay will just look daft on my blog. Google's dictionary describes a sound byte as; a small part of a longer interview that the editor considers to be the most important point.', ie a the most important bit of something. A sound byte essay is a 1500 word or so essay condensed into a small extract, including the most important bits.
