I heard on daily source code that audible is launching something. But as
always, No Damn Announcements. I guess I'll always remember what that
agreement NDA is, the soundvertising phenomenon from Adam Curry, heh. I
guess I'll find out next week.

>> RAWVOICE INC. TO INTRODUCE PODCASTER NEWS NETWORK
>>
>> ONTARIO, CA - November 11, 2005 - Internet media company RawVoice Inc. 
>> plans
>> to unveil the
>> PodcasterNews Network (PCN)
>> at the Portable Media Expo this weekend. The Podcaster News Network 
>> allows
>> listeners to assemble and download personalized podcast news shows with
>> incredible
>> ease. The PodcasterNews Network can be found at
>> http://www.podcasternews.com.
>>
>> "This is the ultimate customized audio news program," said Todd Cochrane,
>> President and CEO of RawVoice "The PodcasterNews Network lets someone 
>> pick
>> the
>> topics they want to hear and puts them together into one program feed,
>> called a MyCast. You want a little tech news, some sports and some 
>> fashion
>> tips
>> each day, then that's what you put in your MyCast." Cochrane, who is also
>> host of Geek News Central and author of Podcasting: The Do it Yourself
>> Guide,
>> said PCN is the next step in personal media evolution. The site focuses 
>> on
>> user experience and will be a terrific advertising opportunity to reach
>> targeted
>> audiences .
>>
>> Jeevan Padiyar, the CFO of RawVoice and an admitted geek, said PCN is for
>> anyone who wants free, on-demand, customized news. "PCN is for people who
>> are
>> tired of waiting to hear what they care about. It allows them to 
>> construct
>> and download a news program that is 100% in tune with their interests."
>>
>> Podcasting is an increasingly popular form of audio content delivery that
>> requires far less equipment than what is needed for over-the-air
>> broadcasting.
>> Podcasts are radio shows that can be downloaded from the internet and
>> listened to on an mp3 player like the iPod.
>>
>> The podcasters contributing to PCN inject their own opinions into their
>> shows. "By being passionate about their subject areas, our podcasters 
>> bring
>> the
>> news to life," Cochrane said. PCN contributors already have established 
>> long
>> format podcasts. The best part about PCN, according to Cochrane is that 
>> each
>> news segment has fresh ideas and commentary, and runs just five minutes.
>>
>> PCN is designed to work with iTunes, Yahoo, or any other podcast software
>> that syncs a user's mp3 player. Visitors can also listen to shows from 
>> the
>> website
>> directly. "We want to ensure complete user satisfaction, and the best way

>> to
>> do that is to give the end user as many choices as possible," added Brian
>> Yuhnke, the companies Creative Director, "but the greatest part of the 
>> site
>> is the MyCast which allows visitors to create an account and pick only 
>> the
>> segments they want included in their MyCast." The proprietary PCN 
>> software
>> then takes care of the rest. It automatically updates each MyCast with 
>> the
>> newest
>> content from only those categories already selected, so that a fresh news
>> show is available each day, living up to RawVoice's philosophy of 
>> providing
>> "Fresh
>> Organic Media."
>>
>> The diverse podcaster line up includes Mental Health Guru Dr. Fran 
>> Babiss,
>> New York GLBT activist Allen Roskoff and Bay-area pastor and commentator
>> Reverend
>> Tim Hohm. Users can include segments from as many podcasters as they 
>> want,
>> and podcasts on a variety of topics are being added to PCN every day.
>>
