My last thought is that podcasting is powerful– AND MATTERS, because it is PUBLISHING. Podcasting is publishing. Podcasting is narrowcasting, but it is also broadcasting. (Just not usually RCA-casting.) We can write, read, and say those words, but I don’t think many or any of us realize their full import. Think how difficult it was for anyone to publish their ideas and share them with others before the advent of the printing press in the 1500s! Even then, and until the advent of the Internet, you still had to either know or develop a relationship with a publisher to get your work “out there” for the world to see and consume.
