Reports from the Asylum

Report from the Asylum 16

In her report for FIR 411, ”˜Professor’ Goetsch congratulates Shel & Neville on four years of podcasting, directs FIR listeners who need a backup solution for a small office to her FileSlingerâ„¢ Backup Blog, and makes note of a few areas where podcasting seems to be stalled out—or just stabilized:

  • There’s still no device that makes it easy to find, subscribe to, update and listen to podcasts without connecting to a computer
  • The technology for producing podcasts hasn’t changed much, though there are now more WordPress plugins for adding podcasts to blogs (such as the Blubrry PowerPress plugin used here)
  • Podcasters may be a subset of the group ”˜media producers’ or ”˜content producers’, but ”˜Professor’ Goetsch, at least, is a podcast consultant, not a media consultant.
