5. Podcasting: Where’s the Model?
“I don’t think there’s a model anymore. I
think there’s an approach. That approach
has to be predicated on what the consumer
is actually doing, not what advertisers are
used to her doing.”
- Jim Stengel, Global Marketing Officer, P&G, CMO Magazine – September 2005

6. What is Podcasting?
Podcasting is audio programming distributed through the internet (RSS)1 and played on a computer
or any portable digital player
– Less than 2 years old
– Asynchronous, time-shifted (not real-time; prerecorded)
– MP3 is the most common format
– Can be music, spoken word, or a combination of both
– Amateur Podcasts formerly thought of as audio blogs
– Over 8000 Podcasts currently in existence2
– Podcasting is the new webinar
– DIY Radio
1Many Podcasting purists argue that it’s not a Podcast unless the media file is delivered via an enclosure in an RSS feed.
