Are you smoking the podcasting dope?
Darren Barefoot isn’t. Shel Holtz, perhaps, is.
My take? Listening to content (versus reading) is good if you want specific content, e.g., a certain lecture or seminar. Especially if you have a commute.
In other words, it’s good for people who listen to seminars on tape in their (or possible talk radio). Not those who listen to their own CD music collection.

Funny you should bring this up. This was brought up at church that we are going to start pod casting. I guess that this is cool and for speakers its a good idea. But I am just really tired of the whole apple branding thing.

I don’t see how podcasting can become popular unless the people produce some dang good content. Of course we all know that opinions are like….
nevermind.

This is very useful. I already like the fact that the audio can be added relatively easily. Podcasting is taking this idea up a notch.

I sure don’t plan to do the podcasting thing. I’m just not that friggin enamoured with my own voice.
And I’ll resist listening to other’s podcasts too. I’ve found listening to motivational tapes and seminar recordings that too many really good writers/mentors have horrible sounding voices. And for me that’s a huge distraction and turn off.

The convenience of podcasting, to me, outweighs the “under produced show
Will the next phase of podcasting be illegal downloads at major universities? Instead of Blink82, it will the economics professor’s class on currency trends in Europe!
As a former college radio show host, I can say that producing a quality show with good content, on even a weekly basis, is time consuming and requires dedication. It certainly takes more time than typing a blog does.
That said, I had a classmate who commuted two hours a day to school. He would record lectures and listen to them on the way home. So for people in places like LA who are stuck in traffic each day, it might be useful. There would have to be good content on a regular basis though.
