Lately I have heard a lot in the media about a phenomenom known as podcasting which (despite the name) is not really limited nor associated with the ubiquitous iPod, it just acquired the name because iPods are I guess the lever that made digital music in that format really take off, and raised the DRM issue (but that's something else).

Anyways - I am actually really interested, not in making a podcast, but rathe rin hearing some of what might be out there.

Today I read about one that is coming out of Iraq even by someone servig out there :eek:

I'm not going to post any links myself right off - but I am hoping that nyone who is a fan or listens to any podcast or even makes one will put links in this thread for our general enjoyment.

So come on EP - is there a Piccoto podcast yet? And if not when are you setting one up? :p
 
Engadget has podcasts every week. It's a roundup of all the news that they posted that week.
 
BUMP - any more to distract me? And any joy with them on dial up :(
 
Adam Curry's podcasts are pretty well-known. :)

Edit: I heard a clever interpretation of the word "PODcast" the other day while reading a blog. Although it did originate due to the popularity of the iPod, it's moved beyond now, and the "POD" can now be interpreted as "Personal On Demand" (i.e. a personal, on-demand audio-cast) ;)
 
And so it should. It's just the medium some people have been waiting for. Uncensored and (technically) free. :)

This thing is really catching on.
As bandwidth becomes less of an issue, video blogging will probably catch on. Adds a whole new level of "personal touch" to your posts then. That'll be fun. :)
 
I really don't see Video blogging catching on, we'll see though :)

That's what people said when the television was first introduced too. :p
It might not happen soon, but it'll come eventually. :)
 
Video blogging...might force some of the geeks to shower once a week then :p
 
Yuck. I can't feel fully awake unless I have a shower every morning.
 
I'm with Kunal on that one. Besides, you can't see stink on camera :p
 
Alright, I kinda wanted to get into this Podcasts, but I didn't like any of the programs listed when I asked about it. Is there a website that can do the same thing as some of those programs?

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
