Coolest of all is that if you've got a great idea for a podcast, YOU can probably do it (no need to be a “GEEK”)!
There are already many types of podcasts, including audio books, music shows, news, humor and sports.
Most podcasts are created by amateurs, but there are also commercial podcasts and independently produced podcasts.
