Podcasting Goes Legit

This is a little late in coming but we wanted to congratulate Adam Curry and Ron Bloom on the venture capital (More than 8 Million Bucks Worth) they raised recently for PodShow. People are really starting to realize the very REAL potential for Podcasting and I'm glad you guys found some adventurous people to help you.

This is how great things happen: on the one year aniversary of his own podcast, the Daily Source Code, Curry remembered how his wife asked him originally how the hell he'd make any money through podcasting. The answer was simple: "I don't care, all I know is I like doing it". Its that sort of attitude that rocks the world. Here's to people that do something for the love of doing it. Most of the time, its the only way to get anything meaningful accomplished.

LearnOutLoud had taken great pains to showcase podcasts and we hope our directory and others like it only add to the landslide in audio content that's chosen by you and no one else.
