I just mentioned yesterday that I cannot see monetizable value in the podcasts, and that my daily habits don't allow me spend too much time for listening to podcasts shows.

Well, guess what, today I felt quite bad that I wasn't able to make it to the Marketing Soiree from London with Seth Godin as a guest and organized by Hugh the other night. That's ok, I just made an hour and a half available and, thanks to Lloyd, I listened to Seth's speech, to the Q&A session as well as to some brief comments from some participants. Via, of course, podcasts made available on the soiree's wiki page. It was like being there, except for the schmooze part, and, i gotta say, plenty of people that I know were there (including Ed).

So, contrary to what probably Gabriel thought, I think there is value in podcasting, marginally of course - that is not to say that I changed my mind about podcasts, I still believe that it is a nice to have feature rather than a must have one; however podcasts will most likely substitute radio shows at a maximum 5% market share cost. Long tail perspective. Moneywise, I'd be probably willing to spend just on shows similar to Bob Cringely's soon-to-be-launched NerdTV show from September 6. Yeah, the sequel for this idea.
