When the iTunes Music Store (ITMS) indroduced podcasting last year it quickly provided more than 8,000 podcasters with a place to tell their stories. Today I checked the iTunes Music Store and counted the total number of podcast. The number has grown 10 fold to 82,978. Below are some charts and a short SCREENCAST telling what I saw today.

POSTSCRIPT

I put this data out to point out just how strong we are as a podcasting community (listeners and podcasters). I love Apple but we need to leverage these numbers IFApple looks to take over the term podcasting. There is no evidence (real evidence) that they are at this time. I am a very strong Apple adovacate but I’m even a stronger “Podcasting” advocate.” In case you hadn’t heard here is ZNET’s article on what is going on
