  Discussing the future of Podcasting This is a double bill!

First, Duke University is going to be holding their very first podcasting symposium shortly. According to them it is the first ever, and since I can't think of another, I won't argue with them:

"Duke University is pleased to announce that we will be hosting the first-ever academic symposium on podcasting from September 27-28 of this year. The two-day event will feature a hands-on podcasting workshop, as well as panel discussions of the economic/business, legal, political, journalistic, and cultural impacts of podcasting by bringing together prominent members of the podcasting community with policymakers, scholars, and media experts."


We have high hopes for this event and suggest everyone who can make it do so! We understand that it is open to the public.

The second billing (but of no less interest) in this post is the guest speaker at said symposium.

Mistermarc and DigitalBill are going to the Carolinas. The Wizards of Technology, who put out a good tech podcast that we have been listening to for a while now, have been recognized as leaders in this still-new medium and have been invited to Duke's symposium as guest speakers.   ¶ 09:30
