ABC Kids Listen’s Imagine This podcast for pre-schoolers

The Australian ABC has launched a podcast for pre-schoolers, called Imagine This. The current episode answers “Why do stars twinkle?”

Skype is apparently working on a call-recording feature. “The goal, the Skype team says, is to make it easier for streamers, vloggers, and podcasters to record and stream their content without dropping a ton of money on studio equipment.”

The Atlantic fired a columnist, Kevin Williamson, for some unpleasant views: particularly expressed on a podcast in 2014, the MediaMatters blog reported. The Daily Beast points out that “People are more open on podcasts. That’s just why we need them.”

Event: Podcamp, San Diego CA, USA. A four(ish) day weekend where hand-picked team of artists, actors and producers come together to write, record, perform and publish a complete podcast along a particular theme. It’s new in our podcasting events and conferences page, suggested to us by a nice man we met called Liam.
