Godcasting
Mar 19, 2005

The Washington Post today ran an article on Godcasting--podcasting about God. Most podcasts are actually Godcasts, or as the Post puts it "there's lots more God on iPod than jazz, theater or movie reviews."

The Post found some preachers that say they like to podcast because, not surprisingly, it doesn't cost much. Making a religous TV show or even a radio broadcast costs money and leads to the preachers spending at least part of their time on air asking for donations. With podcasting, they don't have to.

An interesting reason why the Post says Godcasting is so popular is reaching out to "snow birds." Retirees wintering in Florida or anywhere can still listen to their favorite preachers and be connected to their church.

This article isn't up on the Post online yet, but I'll update this once it is.
