Dear Doreen and LR:

This innovation allows you to bypass conventional broadcasting, become a sort of one-person radio station, and "podcast" to 40 people . . .

(paste)

Is 'Podcasting' the next big thing?

"'Podcasting' is a term that is probably unfamiliar to most people, but it represents a real potential change in the radio landscape. A small group of enthusiasts has begun cobbling together a way to easily share homemade radio shows, eventually allowing people to reach large numbers of listeners by completely bypassing the current structure of radio. [...]

But Podcasting -- like blogging -- seems to combine the best of the Internet with the best of traditional media. It's a way for someone to create and distribute a show to 40 people. And it also would allow a media company to distribute audio content to millions."

Here is the link to the "Podlounge", where you can find more information ( on the "more info" link under "PodNews"):

Imagine. StudioEight "podcast" selectively to an interested audience. Like handing out copies of a literary magazine with low distribution costs . . .well . . .the possibilities are fascinating . . .

this is very interesting, Z!

thanks for the link and info!

(an audience of 40 would most likely be high distribution at this point... ;)... but what a grand idea! i love it!)

we'll check into this further
