[Richard Bluestein's Weblog] Most people doing podcasts I havent heard of, people like to get news and content from people they know or at least think they can trust. The most popular podcasts I know of typically come from people who had previous standard media exposure (think the guys from The Screen Savers on Tech TV)
Some slightly related from Technorati and Google.
[DiVERSiONZ] SO LONG HUNTER S THOMPSON: JWalk on Gannon/Guckert--"At one point, I thought that it was possible that he was a White House "plant." But the White House bigwigs can't be so stupid as to let him continue to talk to the press, can they? If Guckert was really a plant installed by the White House, he would be dead by now (suicide or an auto accident). So now I just think he's just your average run-of-the mill egotistical moron"--ya, i think that is about right.
[Gigaom.com] Om Malik’s Broadband Blog » Thanks to Steve Jobs, Podcasts Are The ...: Umair sums up my feelings when he writes, “So the question becomes - assuming that it’s not the transaction costs that stop them, why aren’t people podcasting? I think it’s because podcasts don’t realize the same kind of huge complementarity that blogs do, through comments, link aggregators, etc.”
[Gigaom.com] Om Malik’s Broadband Blog » Tuning into MediaTuner: Are they planning to do it more like Bloglines, with a directory that contains all feeds that anyone subscribes to, or are they going to be in the business of driving traffic to a few pre-selected sites like they have it setup now? I understand the want to allow users to hit the ground running with some recommendations, but it seems like a dangerous business sanctioning certain sites over others (although, this is largely a bias on my part, being that sites of people I know well were included and mine wasn’t ). As far as I know, at least from the videoblogging perspective, this was all done under the radar, and hearing it from you comes as a bit of a surprise. Videoblogging is still a pretty tight knit community (I know nearly everyone listed in the videoblogging category), and for someone to have not reached out to the community yet seems a little strange.
[Gigaom.com] Om Malik’s Broadband Blog: Steve Jobs, the maverick who has architected one of the greatest comebacks in the history of Silicon Valley, continues to prove that he is a modern day Howard Hughes. Unpredictable, charming, loving, petulant, and perhaps more than anything deviously mysterious. But more than anything brilliant.
[Lostremote.com] Lost Remote TV Blog: It's hard to imagine that its been 25 years since CNN launched. Ted Turner and company were TV mavericks that challenged the established media with a new distribution platform (sound familiar?) A CNN billboard says it best: "Before PCs, CDs, DVDs, PDAs and the Internet, there was the world's first 24-hour news channel. Now you can't imagine a world without it." CNN is marking the 25-year milestone tonight with a two-hour retrospective. "Defining Moments: 25 Stories That Touched Our Lives" starts at 8, then breaks at 9 for "Larry King Live," and continues at 10.
