Todd Cochrane from Geek News Central has been talking about an upcoming announcement on his podcast for weeks. Well this morning I finally listened to his show #64 that he had been touting with great fanfare. The news, as it happens, is that Todd has teamed up with Wiley Publishing to produce the first of what will sure soon be an avalanche of books about podcasting. The book is titled Podcasting: Do it Yourself Pirate Radio For the Masses.
From what Todd spoke about, it seems like this will be a very detailed book about all aspects of podcasting and how to go about creating your own podcast. In other words, a tremendous resource in one package instead of having to go and grab bits and pieces out of individual websites. The technology will likely be changing and allowing for easier and easier production, but at least for the foreseeable future, this book should provide a great foundation if not a complete (or just about) picture of the world of podcasting.
Congratulations, Todd, for being first out of the gate with this one! I can’t wait to take a look at it myself, even though I don’t have any real intentions of creating a podcast myself. Not that I haven’t thought about it, but at this point I’m not ready. Maybe Todd’s book will give me the inspiration to really consider it in a serious way.
