The case of the stodgy podcaster
When I lived in London back in the early 1980s, The Daily Telegraph was the stodgiest, dullest national newspaper in the United Kingdom. Conrad Black, of course, shook things up a little when he took over the paper.
Its current management has decided to podcast the paper. Earlier this week, the Telegraph announced that editors would chose about three top stories a day that would be then be podcast to those who wanted to listen to, rather than read the news.
And one more note from Sunday's Telegraph, reporting that Sir Richard Branson wants to take on Rupert Murdoch and is bidding for the rights to Britain's "Premiership" and that's more important than politics, it's football (soccer to us.) Branson is now looking at convergence--soccer on the cell phone.
