Social Tools, Radio and Pods and Blog's Podcast Plans
I gave a rather rambling talk at Unicom's Social Tools conference on radio, interactivity and Pods and Blogs. You can download the full thing as an mp3 here (scroll to the bottom of the page).
The important announcement sneaked into the talk is that Pods and Blogs is going to be available as a podcast in the very near future (first week of August seems likely - if not sooner). Naturally we're all pretty thrilled about this. Any thoughts on what we should include in the podcast welcome. We are, unfortunately restricted to a high percentage of already broadcast material, but we need to think about several issues. What do we do about idents? Should we include podsafe music as bumps (I'd like to - but what would be the issues with rights etc). Should we use a flash player on the site and if so which one? What new opportunities will it open up for interaction? Does the content need to change a little? Any advice would be very welcome.

Flash player lets people (who do not use Podcast features) visit a "page" and play without downloading. Easy to set up low footprint, but you can also leave people the option of download too.
You could try an audio commenting system, it does not yet "work" for me, my users are not geeky enough to really want it, but I'd have found leaving an audio comment quicker and easier... I suspect it will grow, especially someone who listens to podcast on their phone who can call in their audio comment...
