Mr. Geek thinks podcasting is the future of the world. I think he’s on crack.
I tried many podcasts, and to tell you the truth, I get nothing out of it. I can take in information by reading it so much more efficiently than listening to someone. After an informal survey of many of the people I know, and the large majority of the people I know are just regular folks who couldn’t give a crap about technology, they think the whole idea of podcasting sounds like a solution for an imaginary problem.
Yes, I think podcasting is a fad, or if not a fad, something that will be for just a very limited audience. So, it’s Mr. Geek’s prediction vs my prediction. I’m sure we’ll all remember to check these posts in a couple years to see who was right.
