Podcasting Service Providers Arrive

New proof that podcasting is here to stay – services are popping up to assist podcasters.

Liberated Syndication has announced a new podcast hosting service that it describes as “Podcasting Made Easy.” Liberated Syndication charges for storage, not bandwidth, eliminating some of the obstacles plaguing users of this emerging technology.

Meanwhile, podcaster Carl Franklin has launched Pwop Productions, a podcast production services company. He is the producer and host of a podcast called .NET Rocks!, an interview-style talk show for Microsoft .NET Software Developers.

Steve Rubel is a PR strategist with nearly 16 years of public relations, marketing, journalism and communications experience. He currently serves as a Senior Vice President with Edelman, the largest independent global PR firm.

He authors the Micro Persuasion weblog, which tracks how blogs and participatory journalism are changing the public relations practice.
