NOTACON 3: Your Moment of Audio Zen: A History of Podcasts

Speaker: Jason Scott

The name either excites you or makes you cringe (Hey, maybe it does both) but the fact is, Podcasts are now the hot new thing. Jason Scott provides a quick history of the podcast, as well as its predecessors, its likely replacements, and how the world is likely to look back on this explosion of home-made radio. Subjects covered include pirate radio, shortwave, "Push" technology, the weird birth of RSS, and where things got entirely out of hand.

(Jason Scott is currently collecting every podcast at podcasts.textfiles.com).
