More “podcasting” goodness…but somebody come up with another name…pls…

Posted by Mick (SplaTT) Stanic under: Audioblog; Blogging; Emerging Technology .

The current “aggregated audio in RSS2.0 feeds download feature, auto playlist creation and uploading of said content to portable media playing device” (otherwise known as podcasting) craze, has started to cause some interesting (and the inevitable dotcom type) websites to start to appear.

One of my favourites at the moment is podstar. The podstar site and RSS feed does not appear to have any audio files associated with it, but it does have a great collection of interesting and relevant content for people interested in this podcasting thing.

I Love Radio.org is another site that has lots of interesting content including these great posts; “A Five-Point Roadmap to Podcasting’s Future”, “How Podcasting Will Survive Radion” and of course “Podcasting 101″.

Phil Windley has blogged a post that covers an interesting idea about how podcasting could be used for company/investor meetings…could be something in real world ideas like that i think…

One of the dotcom type sites is PodcastAds…yes, you too can now place paid ads into your podcast…i’ll give them one thing..it is a great way to reach the early adopter crowd. (note: the site doesn’t appear to want to scroll for me in IE 6…hmmm)

dopplerradio have also released v1.0 of Doppler, which is my current audio / media aggregation tool of choice. It works with audio and video files and probably anything else you might want to place in your RSS 2.0 media enclosure tag…it also has the option of creating playlists for either Windows Media Player or iTunes….nice… :)

One Comment so far...
