Shameless self-promotion. That’s what one may think about this post title. But, isn’t this blog to share with you what’s happening with us? (Except, of course, the true reason why Episode 44 was published a day late - the official position being that the dog ate the homework, er, mp3 file!)
Well, Podcast User Magazine had featured us in their September 2006 issue. They had written about Awaaz Anjane as “…an innovative show which includes a really great mix of interviews from Bollywood stars through to audio clips from their listeners and general commentaries. Send in your audio files of music, commentaries or whatever and they will happily include relevant samples. These clips are what make the show….”
Biz Podcsting and CNET Asia soon followed suit in the same month and picked PodioIndia among the few Indian podcasts that they covered.
And then last month, that is April 2007, there was a spate of media attention. First, National Public Radio, ran a segment on Podcasting and interviewed us. Then, a friend brought to our notice that the Indian National newspaper, The Hindu had ran a story on Indian Podcasting and mentioned PodioIndia as the site which “…serves a rich content of Indian music…”. Finally, Tehelka chose to explain the concept of podcasting by citing PodioIndia’s shows as an example.
We are definitely quite pleased that our efforts are being noticed. But you know what that means. The bar just went higher! We are well aware of your expectations and are working hard to bring you more diverse content (honestly, we did rest on our laurels for a couple of days!).
Thank you for your support.
