These guys believe that podcasting is the future. Odeo are a company who believe that podcasting will be the next blogging and plan to make money from its growing popularity. They aim to 'enable this new distribution channel and medium by creating the best one-source solution for finding, subscribing to, and publishing audio content.' It will be interesting to see how a non-visual medium takes off on the web, especially when people are so used to free content.

'Odeo (pronounced OH-dee-oh) means to be podcast central - an all-in-one system that makes it possible for someone with no more equipment than a telephone to produce podcasts and also makes it possible for users to assemble custom playlists of audio files and copy them directly onto MP3 audio players.
The company plans to make money by selling audio content and advertising and, eventually, software for producing and editing podcasts.'
