Jason Calacanis’ Weblogs Inc is looking for a blogger to write a new blog being planned on Podcasting.
Interestingly he comments that the recent announcement that Podcasting support into Apple’s iTunes makes the market a who lot more appealing, and yet he still can’t build a business case (and if anyone is qualified to make a call like this its Calacanis):
Clearly the Steve Jobs announcement changes everything, and you know Microsoft is not going to let anyone add any feature without doing it better. So, 100% of the market is going to be podcast enable in 60 days’โฌยฆ. so, where is the business? I still don’โฌโขt see it. Advertising in podcasts is going to be light compared to web-based advertising for sure. This might be a case of the long tail sucking the revenue out of the business and leaving everyone with scraps’โฌยฆ which is fine, that just means no one should expect to quit their day job (something Dave Winer is probably thrilled with).
