PodcastFAQs.com: A New Information Resource for Podcasters
PodcastFAQ.com is a new site developed by Todd Cochrane of the Geek News Central podcast and several other prominent podcasters from RawVoice. PodcastFAQ is intended as a much-needed information resource for podcasters.
I was exploring the site yesterday and discovered several things I was unaware of:
- Ioda Promonet -- a resource for podsafe music (music you can play on your podcast without violating copyright or paying royalties)
- Podcasting meetups -- I'd heard of meetup.com before, but I didn't realize there were so many podcasters interested in meeting up in my area
- A list of podcast communities, including Blubrry, Podcaster News, Podshow, Podtech, and Tech Podcast Network
PodcastFAQ.com also has a forum, which I hope will grow in participation. On the topic of podcast forums, the Podcasters List Google Group also has an active community of users.
I'm glad to see the creation of this site, PodcastFAQ, since podcasting involves a lot of technical information about audio engineering and creation that can be overwhelming at times. Equipment is expensive, and the methods for producing, editing, and publishing podcasts vary widely.
