A lot of companies already practice this new age technology like CNN and ESPN. A person who watches either one or both, who can not be around a television, can automatically put their podcast on there iPod and watch it whenever they have a chance. This is great for companies and the PR practitioner. Being able to get information and keep your customers happy is essential to the success of the company.

Nice blog, very informative!
I love those common craft videos! They are simple, informative, and entertaining. After all of this talk about Podcasts, I really need to learn how to use these darn things!
Thanks for the examples (CNN, ESPN) and good points about what makes podcasts so effective (anytime, anyplace). And thanks for being so darn resourceful by providing that link common craft!
I was just thinking, I wonder how much podcasts really play a role in PR, I mean, whoever is over podcasts for a company might be more of their marketer and advertiser than PR representative.
Although I guess if done right, podcasts can really make a company personal (like doing interviews over a podcast to show the personal side to the CEO or staff or athlete); that could be really good for company representation and customer relations... so I guess in that way it would be really good for PR !
I think podcast is the new "thing." The days of waiting or missing your favorite radio or TV programs are gone.
