As it happens, I am on this list AND a podcaster, though I've just done a couple of casts so far, which I call "Jungle Tales":
http://www.gomaya.com/glyph/rss.xml As you'll see, that's an RSS feed with enclosures, and it requirers getting a piece of software called an ipodder (see below). This stuff is not automatic yet but it's getting easier. I followed the ramp up to podcasting last summer, met with Dave Winer this fall, and I'm maintaining the "Travel" node at Adam Curry's directory of podcasts: http://www.ipodder.org/directory/4/podcasts If anybody has a travel-themed podcast they would like to be listed, let me know. There are also other good links, including how-to and ipodder software, at that site - ipodder.org How am I using this to address the digital divide? At the Lower Eastside Girls Club we are working on girl-produced music, radio, and video as part of a community-wide network. Podcasting will be an important part of the distribution process for all of this.
