  • The International Podcast Association held its first board meeting at Podcast Movement last night. It’s a brand new group that seeks to bring together the podcast community and to support and accelerate the growth and success of every individual and organisation within podcasting. The group’s website contains a survey to help set the group’s priorities.

  • Spotify has brought their platform, called Spotify for Podcasters, out of beta. The enhanced podcaster portal offers a new blog, support for teams, and most interestingly - a way to discover “the top music artists that their podcast listeners play on Spotify”. Podnews listeners like Taylor Swift at #1, and Elton John at #2. Disappointing.
