Are You a Podcaster?

Why are podcasts becoming so popular? Where ever you are you can see people of all ages listening to podcasts. The reasons for this are many and varied.
MP3 players are quite inexpensive. I own two and I bought them at Kmart for under $20. They hold hours of music or in my case news, commentary, or talk shows. My MP3 players are very small, about the size of a pack of gum.
The software is very easy to use. I use Ziepod on my computer. I open up Ziepod and click update my subscriptions and hours of listening are downloaded to my MP3 player. All of this takes less than 10 minutes.
I believe that it is more natural for people to listen to a story than read a book. With my MP3 player I can work, exercise, or drive a car and constantly listen to information. It’s pretty hard to read a book while doing these things. Believe me, I’ve tried.
