Reiter's Wireless Podcast Report

Speaking at Corporate Podcast Summit, near San Francisco in June

I’m going to be moderating a panel at the Corporate Podcast Summit in Redwood City, Calif. at the Sofitel Hotel, June 20 – 21, 2006 (see below).

My panel in the afternoon on June 20 is about — not surprisingly — wireless podcasting.  One of the speakers is John Mayerhofer, the CEO of VoiceIndigo.  I recently wrote about the company (no, not because Mayerhofer is speaking!).

I think VoiceIndigo’s ability to automatically download podcasts to a cellular phone is a great service although, as I wrote, not everything is perfect with some other features.  It will be interesting to listen to near developments from Mayerhofer and others to be announced at the panel.
