Get Ready For Cellcasts

TechNewsWorld via Moco News reports that a "shift is afoot in the usage of podcasts. Long tied to PCs, or iPods -- hence the name -- podcasting fans are moving on to mobile phones, which increasingly boast more computer-like features".

"Consider: There are tens of millions of iPods and about 700 million PCs already capable of playing podcasts. These are small numbers compared with the 2 billion mobile phones now in use around the world.

"The cell phone will become the next podcast-listening device," says Barbara Rechterman, executive vice-president at GoDaddy.com, which is looking to try mobile podcast advertising".
