A New Podcast Goldrush?

Gold Rush - Sovereign Hill, Ballarat

I have noticed an increase in the number of people asking in various podcasting fora about how to make money in podcasts, the best way to get a large audience fast and questions of that ilk. Is this something we can thank Podcast Movement for? I don’t know an enormous amount about that conference but it seems in line with the focus as I understand it.

I won’t claim my focus is better or worse than any others, but I will say it is different than that. It’s a tricky thing to maintain and express my indifference towards those topics without contempt. I understand some people do care and some might even need to care because they are under different economic conditions than I am. Still, it gets hard to reconcile the big tent sometimes when I feel like I am in the wrong one.
