History of Podcasting

September 23rd, 2006 in Podcasting Tags: , , , ,

Here is a history of podcasting that gets it right: this is a rarity. Given that every other recent podcast related press release seems to mention a yet unknown participant as a “podcast pioneer,” it is refreshing to see a report that takes the time to dig in to the whole story. Notice that, in addition to the usual suspects (myself included), they take the time to mention, Chris Lydon, IT Conversations, Kevin Marks, Harold Gilchrist and Bloggercon 2003 – all signs of proper research. Dan and I worked hard to get it right in our book. It is nice to see a web version available for all to read.

    Thanks Michael

    I spent a lot of time researching to make sure the right people we’re included in the history. Hopefully I nailed it, and didn’t miss too many.

    Cheers
    Rich
